Abstract
Performance of InGaN-based blue-violet laser diodes (LD) with different waveguide structure were investigated by simulation and experimental methods. Theoretical calculation demonstrated that threshold current (Ith) can be reduced and slope efficiency (SE) can be improved by using an asymmetric waveguide structure. Based on the simulation results, a LD with 80-nm-thick In0.03Ga0.97N lower waveguide (LWG) and 80-nm-thick GaN upper waveguide (UWG) is fabricated with flip chip package. Under continuous wave (CW) current injection at room temperature, its optical output power (OOP) reaches 4.5 W at an operating current of 3 A and the lasing wavelength of 403 nm. The threshold current density (Jth) is 0.97 kA/cm2 and the SE is about 1.9 W/A.
