Abstract

We have observed extremely wide spectral range electroluminescence (EL) from InAs quantum dots (QDs) on (001) InP substrates at room temperature. The InAs QDs were grown by droplet heteroepitaxy using a low-pressure organometallic vapor phase epitaxial system. Room-temperature EL in a very wide wavelength range from 950 to 2200 nm was observed from InAs QDs embedded in InP matrix. The wide range emission indicates that the QDs have white optical gain in the infrared region at room temperature, which can be applied to efficient optical amplifiers for 1.0–1.6 μm fiber communication.
