Abstract
We investigate the growth, fabrication, and characterization of an electrically-injected spin-polarized laser utilizing an Fe/n+-Al0.1Ga0.9As Schottky tunnel barrier for efficient spin injection into an InGaAs quantum well vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser. A threshold current reduction of 11% and maximum degree of circular polarization of 23% are observed for a 15 µm mesa diameter laser at 50 K. The lack of a threshold current reduction and circularly-polarized electroluminescence in similar nonmagnetic and Fe control lasers provides further evidence of spin injection.
