Quantum well lasers have attracted a great deal of attention by their many advantages such as low threshold current density, excellent temperature feature, high modulation rate and wavelength adjustability etc. The investigation on quantum well laser in mainland China started in the early 80s. AlGaAs/GaAs QW laser diode and InGaAs/GaAs strained layer QW laser diode have been developed using MBE technology with extremely low threshold current and high T0. Now the growth technologies for QW structure have been expanded to MOCVD technology. Emission wavelengths, on longer wavelength sides have been expanded up to 1.3 µm and 1.55 µm with InGaAsP/InP material system for application in optical fiber communication. On shorter wavelength sides, the emission wavelength has been expanded to lower than 670 nm, for applications in optical information processing. The characteristics of these devices will be demonstrated in this paper. The QW-DFB LD and low-dimension quantum wire and quantum dot lasers are under investigation.
