Abstract

Present status of GaInAsP/InP long-wavelength quantum wire lasers, fabricated by a method using electron beam exposure, dry etching, and two-step organometallic vapor-phase epitaxy, is described from aspects of low-damage interface formation and size uniformity of quantum wire structures. Even though superior lasing properties attributed to sharper gain spectrum over that of quantum well structure have not been realized yet, polarization anisotropic feature of the quantum wire structure and formation of good interfaces by this fabrication method were confirmed. Single-wavelength lasers consisting of quantum wire structure as the active and/or the passive regions have been realized as possible candidates for future integrated photonics.
