Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor optoelectronic devices, and in particular to a gallium nitride semiconductor laser element with a lower waveguide layer having a low fast axis divergence angle. Background Art

[0002] Lasers are widely used in laser display, laser TV, laser projector, communication, medical treatment, weapons, guidance, ranging, spectral analysis, cutting, precision welding, high-density optical storage and other fields. There are many types of lasers, and the classification methods are also diverse, mainly including solid, gas, liquid, semiconductor and dye types of lasers; compared with other types of lasers, all-solid-state semiconductor ultraviolet lasers have the advantages of small size, high efficiency, light weight, good stability, long life, simple and compact structure, and miniaturization.

[0003] There are significant differences between lasers and nitride semiconductor light-emitting diodes. 1) Lasers are generated by stimulated radiation from carriers, with a small half-width spectrum and high brightness. The output power of a single laser can be in the W level, while nitride semiconductor light-emitting diodes emit spontaneous radiation, and the output power of a single light-emitting diode is in the mW level. 2) The current density of the laser is as high as KA / cm 2 , which is more than 2 orders of magnitude higher than that of nitride light-emitting diodes, resulting in stronger electron leakage, more serious Auger recombination, stronger polarization effect, more serious electron-hole mismatch, and more serious efficiency attenuation Droop effect; 3) The light-emitting diode spontaneously radiates, without external influence, and is incoherent light that transitions from high energy level to low energy level, while the laser is stimulated transition radiation, and the energy of the induced photon should be equal to the difference in energy levels of the electron transition, generating photons and induced photons with identical coherent light; 4) The principles are different: the light-emitting diode is under the action of external voltage, and the electron-hole transition to the active layer or pn junction generates radiation recombination and luminescence, while the laser needs the lasing conditions to be met before it can be lased, and the carrier inversion distribution in the active area must be met. The stimulated radiation light oscillates back and forth in the resonant cavity, and the propagation in the gain medium amplifies the light, and the threshold condition is met so that the gain is greater than the loss, and finally the laser is output.

[0004] Nitride semiconductor ultraviolet lasers have the following problems: after the laser emits stable laser saturation, the quasi-Fermi levels of holes and electrons are pinned, the injected carriers are completely converted into photon output, the optical gain reaches saturation, the junction voltage also reaches saturation, and the carrier concentration in the cavity does not change with the current. The symmetry breaking corresponding to the phase transition of the active layer away from the equilibrium state causes the laser to be discontinuous or sudden at the threshold, such as the Kink problem of the IV curve and the jump of the fast axis divergence angle. The quantum well confinement factor is small, and the light field diffuses longitudinally, resulting in problems such as a large fast axis divergence angle. Summary of the invention
