Abstract: | The effect of quantum well (QW) strain on the thermal performance of InGaP/InGaAlP lasers emitting at around 635 nm is investigated theoretically. It is found that compressively-strained QWs offer superior thermal performance due to an increased barrier height for electrons, leading to a reduced electron leakage. The theoretical predictions are supported by experimental data from red-emitting laser diodes with an improved characteristic temperature T 0. |
