Fabrication and Characteristics of GaAs/AlGaAs GRIN-SCH Quantum Well Laser Diode by MOCVD

MOCVD를 이용한 GaAs/AlGaAs GRIN-SCH 양자 우물 레이저의 제작 및 특성

GRIN-SCH quantum well structured Laser Diode were fabricated using MOCVD and operated as CW at room temperature. The threshold current density of the LD with 670${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ cavity length was 530 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$. For the ridge waveguide type index guiding structured LD with 6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ stripe width and 240${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ cavity length, the threshold current was 50㎃. The maximum differential quantum efficiency was 0.95W/A when the optical output was 60mW. The lasing wavelength of QW LD was 865nm. In the L-I measurement. TE mode was superior to TM mode. From the near field pattern, single lateral mode operation was observed.
