Abstract
Electroluminescence (EL) and temperature-dependent photoluminescence measurements are performed to study the internal quantum efficiency droop phenomenon of blue laser diodes (LDs) before lasing. Based on the ABC mode, the EL result demonstrates that non-radiative recombination rates of LDs with threshold current densities of 4 and 6 kA/cm2 are similar, while LD with threshold current density of 4 kA/cm2 exhibits a smaller auger-like recombination rate compared with the one of 6 kA/cm2. The internal quantum efficiency droop is more serious for LD with higher threshold current density. The internal quantum efficiency value estimated from temperature-dependent photoluminescence is consistent with EL measurements.
