隧道再生四有源区大功率半导体激光器

利用隧道再生原理实现半导体激光器在低注入电流下的高光功率输出。通过传输矩阵法对隧道再生四有源区光耦合半导体激光器的模式特性进行了理论分析,指出器件的激射模式应为TE3,且存在最优的内限制层厚度。利用金属有机物化学气相沉积(MOCVD)外延法生长了内限制层厚度分别为0.3μm、0.5μm和0.7μm的器件。内限制层厚度等于0.5μm的器件的P-I特性最好,腔面未镀膜时,在2 A的注入电流下其光输出功率大于5 W,P/I斜率达2.74 W/A。结果表明,为了得到尽可能高的光输出功率,需要合理地设计隧道再生多有源区激光器的内限制层厚度。     

电极结构优化对大功率GaN基发光二极管性能的影响

在台面结构的GaN基发光二极管(LED)里，电流要侧向传输，当尺寸与电流密度加大之后，由于n型GaN层和下限制层的横向电阻不能忽略，造成了横向电流分布不均匀.通过优化电极结构，以减小电流横向传输距离，制作出两种不同电极结构的大功率GaN基倒装LED.通过比较这两种不同电极结构的GaN基倒装大功率LED的电、光性能，发现在350mA正向电流下，插指电极结构的倒装大功率GaN基LED的正向电压为3.35V，比环形插指电极结构的倒装大功率GaN基LED高0.15V.尽管环形插指电极结构GaN基LED的发光面积略小于插指电极结构GaN基LED，但在大电流下，环形插指电极结构倒装GaN基LED的光输出功率比插指电极结构的倒装大功率LED的光输出功率大.并且在大电流下，环形插指电极结构的倒装大功率LED光输出功率饱和速度慢，而插指电极结构的倒装大功率LED光输出功率饱和明显.这说明优化电极结构能提高电流扩展均匀性，减小焦耳热的产生，改善GaN基LED的性能.     

溅射制备不同厚度Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3薄膜结晶态的研究

研究了射频磁控溅射的Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3(PZT52/48)薄膜在退火晶化时,厚度对其结晶态及表面形貌的影响.首先利用Materials Studio软件对PZT分子进行了模拟,并模拟了X射线衍射(XRD)得到PZT的特征峰图;实验上,采用退火炉对不同厚度的PZT(52/48)薄膜进行了不同温度及时间的退火;接着采用XRD对各样片薄膜进行了结晶物相分析;采用FIB对部分样片薄膜表面形貌进行了观察.实验结果显示,薄膜的厚度及退火条件在一定程度上对其结晶态的影响是一致的;对于一定厚度的薄膜,合适且相同的退火(650 ℃)条件都可以使其形成单一的PZT(52/48)物相;二次退火对较厚薄膜结晶化有一定的作用,但随着溅射薄膜厚度的增加而累加了内应力,退火后形成有PZT(52/48)物相的较厚薄膜表面出现裂纹越明显.     

AlGaInP thin-film LED with omni-directionally reflector and ITO transparent conducting n-type contact

In this paper a novel A1GalnP thin-film light-emitting diode （LED） with omni-directionally reflector （ODR） and transparent conducting indium tin oxide （ITO） n-type contact structure is proposed, and fabrication process is developed. This reflector is realized with the combination of a low-refractive-index dielectric layer and a high reflectivity metal layer. This allows the light emitted or internally reflected downwardly towards the GaAs substrate at any angle of incidence to be reflected towards the top surface of the chip. ITO n-type contact is used for anti-reflection and current spreading layers on the ODR-LED with ITO. The sheet resistance of the ITO films （95 nm） deposited on n- ohmic contact of ODR-LED is of the order 23.5Ω/△ with up to 90% transmittance （above 92% for 590-770 nm） in the visible region of the spectrum. The optical and electrical characteristics of the ODR-LED with ITO are presented and compared to conventional AS-LED and ODR-LED without ITO. It is shown that the light output from the ODR-LED with ITO at forward current 20mA exceeds that of AS-LED and ODR-LED without ITO by about a factor of 1.63 and 0.16, respectively. A favourable luminous intensity of 218.3 mcd from the ODR-LED with ITO （peak wavelength 620 nm） could be obtained under 20 mA injection, which is 2.63 times and 1.21 times higher than that of AS-LED and ODR-LED without ITO, respectively.[第一段]     

A tunnel regenerated coupled multi-active-region large optical cavity laser with a high quality beam

A novel coupled multi-active-region large optical cavity structure cascaded by a tunnel junction is proposed to solve the problems of facet catastrophic optical damage (COD) and the large vertical divergence caused by the thin emitting area in conventional laser diodes. For a laser with three active regions, a slope efficiency as high as 1.49 W/A, a vertical divergence angle of 17.4 , and a threshold current density of 271 A/cm 2 are achieved. By optimizing the structural parameters, the beam quality is greatly improved, and the level of the COD power increases by more than two times compared with that of the conventional laser.
