Abstract

We have studied the gain characteristics of gain-guided quantum well II–VI laser diodes by measuring the amplified spontaneous emission spectra under several pulsed conditions. The temperature rise during one current pulse affects the gain characteristics and the L-I characteristics. The net modal gain at constant peak current increases with the pulse width. The peak gain for long pulses shows a superlinear dependence on injection current. In this case, the L-I curve is very steep above threshold and sometimes shows an internal quantum efficiency of more than unity. This leads to an underestimation of the internal cavity loss giving a value inconsistent with the one obtained from the gain spectra. With short pulse currents (&lt;200 ns), the peak gain shows a weak sublinear dependence on injection current. The cavity losses obtained from the gain spectra and the L-I characteristics at short pulses are consistent. As a result, we obtain the intrinsic gain characteristics of gain-guided quantum well II–VI laser diodes.
