The carrier localization effect in these samples is investigated mainly by temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurements. It is found that the localization effect is enhanced as the well width increases from 1.8 nm to 3.6 nm in our experiments. The temperature induced PL peak blueshift and linewidth variation increase with increasing well width, implying that a greater amplitude of potential fluctuation as well as more localization states exist in wider wells. In addition, it is noted that the broadening of the PL spectra always occurs mainly on the low-energy side of the PL spectra due to the temperature-induced band-gap shrinkage, while in the case of the widest well, a large extension of the spectral curve also occurs in the high energy sides due to the existence of more shallow localized centers.展开更多
A multiple-wavelength GaInAsP/InP microlaser with microdisk radiuses from 10 m to 10.6 m laterally coupled into a bus waveguide are fabricated by standard photolithygraphy and inductively coupled-plasma (ICP) etching ...A multiple-wavelength GaInAsP/InP microlaser with microdisk radiuses from 10 m to 10.6 m laterally coupled into a bus waveguide are fabricated by standard photolithygraphy and inductively coupled-plasma (ICP) etching techniques. The lasing wavelengths are 1533 nm, 1541 nm, 1551 nm and 1555 nm at the CW injection current of 10 mA for the four microlasers. The proposed multiple-microlaser array would be useful for realizing compact wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) light source for optical interconnects.展开更多

文摘The dynamic characteristics are investigated for a microring laser with an external radius of 12μm subject to external optical injection.Single-mode operation with a side mode suppression ratio of 33.4 dB is realized at a biasing current of 25 mA and a temperature of 290 K,and the corresponding small-signal modulation response is obtained with a resonance peak frequency of 7.5 GHz.Under the optical injection from a tunable laser,the improvements of the small-signal modulation response induced by four-wave mixing are observed for the microring laser,which shows an additional resonance peak around the frequency of the beat frequency between the lasing mode and the injecting light.Furthermore,optical generation of a microwave signal is realized by the light beating between the lasing mode and the injecting light measured by a high-speed photodetector and a spectrum analyzer.
