Abstract
The performance of O-band InAs/GaAs quantum-dot (QD) lasers grown by molecular beam epitaxy with three different doping strategies in the active region are investigated for a temperature range of 17 °C–97 °C. The lasing performance indicates that the n-type doping technique reduced the threshold current density of InAs QD lasers across the full temperature range and narrowed the near field lasing spot. However, for short-cavity lasers, the n-type doped laser switches from ground-state to excited-state lasing at a lower temperature compared to undoped and p-type modulation-doped lasers. In contrast, the p-type modulation-doped lasers have a reduced threshold current density for higher temperatures and for shorter lasers with cavity lengths of 1 mm and below.
