Embodiment Construction

[0018] The AlGaInAs / InP material system is adopted, and the light emitting wavelength range of the active region is 1.25 μm to 1.65 μm. Specifically, it includes the lower cladding layer on the n-type InP substrate, the upper and lower confinement layers (SCH) and the multi-quantum well active region located therein, wherein the thickness of the well is 5-10nm, and the total thickness of the well barrier in the active region Between 10-500nm, the multi-quantum well active region has 4-10 pairs of well barriers.

[0019] Wherein the separate confinement layer is a stepped structure or a slowly changing separate confinement structure (GRIN-SCH), and above the upper confinement layer are an upper cladding layer, an etching cut-off layer, an optical confinement layer and an ohmic contact layer.

[0020] Usually the RWG structure is a vertical mesa-shaped ridge waveguide, which easily causes the problem of large series resistance of the device. In order to reduce the series resist...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an aluminum gallium indium arsenic multi-quantum well superluminescent light-emitting diode. Compared with lasers, the device has a wide spectral range and a large output power compared with light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and the output power etc. The parameters must meet certain requirements and belong to the fields of sensing, optical communication and fiber optic gyro navigation. Background technique [0002] In the fields of communication and sensing, it is necessary to use a wide-spectrum gain device, such as the wide-spectrum light source required in dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) of optical communication systems; in fiber optic gyro navigation based on small incoherence Broad-spectrum light source as required. Generally, lasers (LD) have a small spectral range of a few nanometers (nm). Although LEDs have a wide spectral range, their output power is small, while superluminescent light-emitting diodes have a...
