The present application provides a method for performance evaluation and structure optimization of a high-power
semiconductor laser chip, and a
system for performance evaluation. Wherein the method for performance evaluation of a high-power
semiconductor laser chip comprises: setting a window in an N-
surface electrode of a
chip to be tested; maintaining the chip to be tested in an operating state, wherein spontaneous
radiation is generated in an active area of a
quantum well of the chip to be tested; imaging the spontaneous
radiation at a position outside the chip to be tested; acquiring, by using a
spectrometer outside the chip to be tested, a spectrum of the spontaneous
radiation to obtain a two-dimensional distribution of temperature of the
quantum well of the chip to be tested in the operating state; and acquiring, by using a
CCD camera outside the chip to be tested, an image of the spontaneous radiation to obtain a two-dimensional distribution of carriers in the
quantum well of the chip to be tested in the operating state. The method for performance evaluation and structure optimization of a high-power
semiconductor laser chip provided by the present application can get the temperature distribution and the carrier concentration distribution of the chip to be tested in the operating state with a resolution that is freely adjustable, the operation is convenient and easy to implement, and the accuracy of evaluation results is effectively improved.
