Abstract
We report on the realization of InGaAs-InGaAsP separate confinement heterostructure multiple quantum well lasers grown by chemical beam epitaxy. We discuss key growth parameters and characterization by secondary-ion mass spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, electron-beam-induced current, and x-ray diffraction. Threshold current densities as low as 450 Acm2 are obtained on lasers with five strained InGaAs quantum wells, along with internal quantum efficiencies of 90% and optical losses of 5 cm-1.
