Abstract: | GaInP/AlGaInP triple quantum well (TQW) lasers, grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using tertiarybutylarsine (TBAs) and tertiarybutylphosphine (TBP), were fabricated with a pulsed anodic oxidation (PAO) process. The devices worked at room temperature (RT) with the lowest threshold current density (Jth) of 1.5 kA/cm2 ever reported for GaInP/AlGaInP lasers grown using TBAs and TBP. Temperature dependent (35–250 K) electroluminescence (EL) study of the GaInP/AlGaInP laser diode showed almost the same luminescence quenching behavior at a high temperature region (120–250 K), independent of the injection current (100–150 mA). A model involving a nonradiative recombination mechanism was presented to interpret the EL quenching behavior over the experimental temperature range. The nonradiative recombination centers in the Al-containing barrier or cladding layer are believed to contribute to the loss of carriers via nonradiative recombination.
