Design and performance optimization of high-power 1060 nm GaAs laser diodes with strain-compensated active regions and asymmetric waveguides
摘要
This simulation study demonstrates high-performance in GaAs-based 1060 nm laser diodes through epitaxial structure innovation. Replacing strained type-II GaAsSb / InGaAs with lattice-matched GaAsSb / InGaAsSb active regions reduces defects and non-radiative recombination. An asymmetric narrow waveguide optimizes optical confinement and minimizes p-side carrier absorption. A novel strain-compensated GaAsP / InGaAs / GaAsSb / InGaAsSb / GaAsP MQW transforms weak type-II into type-I band alignment, enhancing radiative recombination and internal quantum efficiency (
