Strained layer In0.2Ga0.8As/GaAs quantum-well (QW) lasers have been used to pump Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers for use in opto-electronic communication systems. These InGaAs/GaAs Q-W lasers grown as graded index separate confinement heterostructures (GRINSCH) emit at 980 nm and have exhibited low threshold current densities, high electrical to optical power conversion efficiencies, low noise, and low temperature sensitivities [1–3]. Recently there has been much attention toward the growth and fabrication of devices containing short period superlattices of (InAs)m/(GaAs)m or (GaAs)m/(AlAs)n compositions [4–9]. Indeed the growth of inverted MODFET structures using a (GaAs)/(AlAs) superlattice barrier in place of an AlGaAs random alloy exhibited an increase in low temperature mobility due to reductions in the number of impurities and interface roughness [7]]. Can the optical properties of strained layer InGaAs/GaAs Q-W lasers also be improved by growing an (InAs)/(GaAs)4 short period superlattice as the active layer in place of the In0.2Ga0.8 As random alloy?This paper reports the fabrication of ridge waveguide lasers using a 6 period (InAs)1/(GaAs)4 superlattice active region in a GRINSCH laser structure. One period of the superlattice consists of 1 monolayer (ML) of InAs and 4 ML of GaAs. Thus the average In composition in the superlattice is 20%. This superlattice laser is an alternative to the In0.2Ga0.8As/GaAs random alloy quantum-well laser used as a pump source for Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifiers. In a single quantum well In0.2Ga0.8As/GaAs laser the active region is a thin layer (-70Å thick) sandwiched between GaAs barrier layers. The superlattice active laser reported here has 6 periods of (InAs)1/(GaAs)4 as the light emitting region of a total width comparable to a single quantum well of random alloy composition.

The performance of InGaN quantum well based Light Emitting Diodes; (LEDs) had been numerically investigated by using standard industrial software, Silvaco. In this work, we found that InGaN single quantum well (SQW) LEDs gives better performance than InGaN triple quantum wells LEDs. The simulation results suggest that the inhomogeneity of electron and hole distributions in quantum wells active region plays an important role in the LEDs performance. The threshold current per μm also increases as the number of quantum well is increased.
