摘要
We report on the measurement of junction temperature of the InAs/InP(l00) quantum dot lasers working in the 1.55μm wavelength region. The measurement is based on analyzing the temperature induced mode shift of the Fabry-Perot cavity. Under pulsed operation mode, more than 20℃ junction temperature rise is measured for the quantum-dot (QD) laser when the duty cycle is increased from 1% to 95%. For a reference quantum well laser, the junction temperature rise is obtained as only around 3℃. The large junction temperature rise might be a crucial factor to improve the performance of QD lasers.
