Abstract

Here we present optical spectroscopy studies to examine structural and optical properties of active region of quantum cascade lasers grown fully by MOCVD technique. The active part is InGaAs/AlInAs based multilayer structure nominally lattice matched to InP substrate. In this communication we study a set of structures with different growth temperature of the cladding layers and its influence on the properties of active core. The x-ray spectroscopy (XRD) allowed to determine the widths of constituent layers and compare obtained values with nominal ones. Fourier-transformed photoluminescence (FTPL) and photoreflectance (PR) measurements provided high signal to noise spectra, proving good optical and structural properties of investigated samples. A model of atoms interdiffusion processes was presented to explain observed small energy shifts of the transitions energies within the investigated multilayer structures.
