Abstract
The temperature dependences of the emission characteristics of semiconductor lasers based on MOVPE-grown asymmetric separate-confinement heterostructures (wavelengths λ = 1010–1070 nm) have been studied. It was found that, in the continuous-wave mode, the main mechanism of “saturation” of the light-current characteristic with increasing temperature of the active region is carrier delocalization into the waveguide layer. It was experimentally demonstrated that the thermal delocalization of carriers depends on the energy depth of the quantum well (QW) in the active region. It is shown that the minimum internal optical loss at 140°C is obtained in laser structures with the largest energy depth of the QW of the active region.
