Abstract
Laser diodes composed of GaInAs quantum wells (QWs) and InP barriers are of considerable interest because they provide gain in the visible wavelength range 1.3 - 1.55 mu m. By altering the width of the QW region, the emission wavelength can be continuously varied. In the analogous GaInP AlGaInP system, thermal activation of carriers out of the well has been blamed for the poor thermal characteristics of these lasers and has been verified in a careful study of the temperature dependence of the QW luminescence. In this paper, we examine the photoluminescence (PL) intensity as a function of temperature from a range of QWs of various widths.
