Abstract
Laser diodes with nonidentical multiple quantum wells could have the lasing wavelength very insensitive to temperature variation. For temperature varying from 33 to 260 K, the lasing energy changes less than 5 meV, while the band gap energy changes more than 50 meV. The origin is due to the strongly temperature-dependent Fermi–Dirac distribution, which favors carriers in high-energy states at large temperature. The temperature-induced carrier redistribution could even cause negative characteristic temperature for a certain temperature range because the low-energy quantum wells behave like reservoirs to overcome the detrimental influence of temperature.
