Abstract

The invention discloses a Si-doped InAs / GaAs quantum dot laser and a preparation method thereof. The Si-doped InAs / GaAs quantum dot laser is characterized by comprising a quantum dot active region (50), wherein the quantum dot active region (50) comprises a Si-doped quantum dot layer (51); and according to the preparation method of the quantum dot laser, a buffer layer (20), a lower cladding layer(30), a lower waveguide layer (40), the quantum dot active region (50), an upper waveguide layer (60), an upper cladding layer (70) and an ohmic contact layer (80) are sequentially grown on a substrate (10) by adopting an MBE epitaxial growth method. According to the quantum dot laser, a non-radiative recombination center near quantum dots is effectively passivated through introducing Si atoms and the optical property of a quantum dot material is strengthened; and meanwhile, threshold current of a laser device can be reduced through electrons introduced by the Si atoms and the performance ofthe device can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductors, and in particular relates to a Si-doped InAs / GaAs quantum dot laser and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The continuous increase in the amount of information puts forward higher requirements for the light source of optical fiber communication. As the core component of the optical fiber communication system, the semiconductor laser plays a vital role in the performance of the whole system. Quantum dot materials have discrete energy levels similar to atoms, and the density of states is in the form of a delta function because the sizes in three dimensions are close to the de Broglie wavelength of electrons. Semiconductor quantum dot lasers exhibit superior characteristics such as low threshold current density, high differential gain, high temperature stability, high modulation rate, and low frequency chirp effect, and are expected to become important light sources ...
