Book excerpt: Since the first demonstration of room-temperature operation of self-assembled quantum dot (QD) lasers about a decade ago, there have been great strides in improving the characteristics and performance of these lasers. They currently match or surpass the performance of quantum well lasers. However, there are unique problems that limit the performance of conventional separate confinement heterostructure (SCH) QD lasers compared to what is expected from "ideal" lasers with near singular density of states. In the study reported here, unique insights and solutions to these problems are demonstrated and reliable quantum dot lasers that surpass quantum well lasers in performance characteristics are developed. By utilizing the concepts of tunnel injection and p-doping, 1.0 micrometer and 1.3 micrometer quantum dot lasers with high differential gain, modulation bandwidth ^25GHz, a factor less than unity, and zero chirp have been achieved. This final report summarizes the successful design, fabrication, and characterization of high performance 1.0 micrometer QD-Distributed-Feedback (DFB) lasers, 1.0 micrometer QD-Tunnel-Injection lasers (undoped and p-doped), and 1.3 micrometer p-doped QD lasers. The authors have demonstrated record performance of these unique devices in terms of differential gain, modulation bandwidth, temperature dependence, chirp, and linewidth enhancement factor.

Book excerpt: A detailed theoretical and experimental study of the application of quantum dot active regions to edge-emitting lasers and electro-optic modulators was undertaken. The theoretical work included calculation of the bandstructure and electronic properties of self-assembled quantum dots, carrier scattering rates and the oscillator strength and gain of interband and intersubband transitions. Experimental work included growth of self-organized dots and active devices, their fabrication and characterization. Very narrow PL linewidths in the dots were achieved (approx. 19 meV) by the incorporation of buried stressor dots. The dynamics of hot carriers and carrier relaxation rates were characterized by differential transmission spectroscopy. It was established from a variety of measurements and calculations that electron-hole scattering is the dominant carrier relaxation mechanism in quantum dots. Modulation bandwidth measurements on QD lasers at cryogenic temperatures (f-3dB approx. 30 GHz at T = 100K) confirmed the role of electron-hole scattering. The electron-optic coefficients of quantum dots was measured for the first time and a QD modulator has been demonstrated. Bistability and gain switching has also been observed and characterized. The unique carrier dynamics in quantum dots is favorable for the realization of intersubband emitters and detectors, and these have been investigated.

Book Synopsis Quantum Dot Lasers on Silicon by : Bozhang Dong
Download or read book Quantum Dot Lasers on Silicon written by Bozhang Dong and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-02-04 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides guidelines and design rules for developing high-performance, low-cost, and energy-efficient quantum-dot (QD) lasers for silicon photonic integrated circuits (PIC), optical frequency comb generation, and quantum information systems. To this end, the nonlinear properties and dynamics of QD lasers on silicon are investigated in depth by both theoretical analysis and experiment. This book aims at addressing four issues encountered in developing silicon PIC: 1) The instability of laser emission caused by the chip-scale back-reflection. During photonic integration, the chip-scale back-reflection is usually responsible for the generation of severe instability (i.e., coherence collapse) from the on-chip source. As a consequence, the transmission performance of the chip could be largely degraded. To overcome this issue, we investigate the nonlinear properties and dynamics of QD laser on Si in this book to understand how can it be applied to isolator-free photonic integration in which the expensive optical isolator can be avoided. Results show that the QD laser exhibits a high degree of tolerance for chip-scale back-reflections in absence of any instability, which is a promising solution for isolator-free applications. 2) The degradation of laser performance at a high operating temperature. In this era of Internet-of-Thing (IoT), about 40% of energy is consumed for cooling in the data center. In this context, it is important to develop a high-temperature continuous-wave (CW) emitted laser source. In this book, we introduce a single-mode distributed feedback (DFB) QD laser with a design of optical wavelength detuning (OWD). By taking advantage of the OWD technique and the high-performance QD with high thermal stability, all the static and dynamical performances of the QD device are improved when the operating temperature is high. This study paves the way for developing uncooled and isolator-free PIC. 3) The limited phase noise level and optical bandwidth of the laser are the bottlenecks for further increasing the transmission capacity. To improve the transmission capacity and meet the requirement of the next generation of high-speed optical communication, we introduce the QD-based optical frequency comb (OFC) laser in this book. Benefiting from the gain broadening effect and the low-noise properties of QD, the OFC laser is realized with high optical bandwidth and low phase noise. We also provide approaches to further improve the laser performance, including the external optical feedback and the optical injection. 4) Platform with rich optical nonlinearities is highly desired by future integrated quantum technologies. In this book, we investigate the nonlinear properties and four-wave mixing (FWM) of QD laser on Si. This study reveals that the FWM efficiency of QD laser is more than ten times higher than that of quantum-well laser, which gives insight into developing a QD-based silicon platform for quantum states of light generation. Based on the results in this book, scientists, researchers, and engineers can come up with an informed judgment in utilizing the QD laser for applications ranging from classical silicon PIC to integrated quantum technologies.
Book Synopsis Nonlinear Laser Dynamics by : Kathy Lüdge

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A distinctive discussion of the nonlinear dynamical phenomena of semiconductor lasers. The book combines recent results of quantum dot laser modeling with mathematical details and an analytic understanding of nonlinear phenomena in semiconductor lasers and points out possible applications of lasers in cryptography and chaos control. This interdisciplinary approach makes it a unique and powerful source of knowledge for anyone intending to contribute to this field of research. By presenting both experimental and theoretical results, the distinguished authors consider solitary lasers with nano-structured material, as well as integrated devices with complex feedback sections. In so doing, they address such topics as the bifurcation theory of systems with time delay, analysis of chaotic dynamics, and the modeling of quantum transport. They also address chaos-based cryptography as an example of the technical application of highly nonlinear laser systems.
Book Synopsis Quantum Confined Laser Devices by : Peter Blood
Download or read book Quantum Confined Laser Devices written by Peter Blood and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The semiconductor laser, invented over 50 years ago, has had an enormous impact on the digital technologies that now dominate so many applications in business, commerce and the home. The laser is used in all types of optical fibre communication networks that enable the operation of the internet, e-mail, voice and skype transmission. Approximately one billion are produced each year for a market valued at around $5 billion. Nearly all semiconductor lasers now use extremely thin layers of light emitting materials (quantum well lasers). Increasingly smaller nanostructures are used in the form of quantum dots. The impact of the semiconductor laser is surprising in the light of the complexity of the physical processes that determine the operation of every device. This text takes the reader from the fundamental optical gain and carrier recombination processes in quantum wells and quantum dots, through descriptions of common device structures to an understanding of their operating characteristics. It has a consistent treatment of both quantum dot and quantum well structures taking full account of their dimensionality, which provides the reader with a complete account of contemporary quantum confined laser diodes. It includes plenty of illustrations from both model calculations and experimental observations. There are numerous exercises, many designed to give a feel for values of key parameters and experience obtaining quantitative results from equations. Some challenging concepts, previously the subject matter of research monographs, are treated here at this level for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis deals with the dynamics of state-of-the-art nanophotonic semiconductor structures, providing essential information on fundamental aspects of nonlinear dynamical systems on the one hand, and technological applications in modern telecommunication on the other. Three different complex laser structures are considered in detail: (i) a quantum-dot-based semiconductor laser under optical injection from a master laser, (ii) a quantum-dot laser with optical feedback from an external resonator, and (iii) a passively mode-locked quantum-well semiconductor laser with saturable absorber under optical feedback from an external resonator. Using a broad spectrum of methods, both numerical and analytical, this work achieves new fundamental insights into the interplay of microscopically based nonlinear laser dynamics and optical perturbations by delayed feedback and injection.

This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quantization of the active laser medium has enabled numerous advances in fiber-optic communications, e.g., higher efficiency of laser diodes, higher modulation bandwidth, lower spectral linewidth of the emitted signal. In recent years the quantum dot lasers have demonstrated a strong potential to continue this trend, therefore, by progressing from standard quantum well to quantum dot designs, it can be expected that the quantum dot lasers will play an increasingly important role in future fiber-optic communications. The research work presented in this dissertation seeks to further develop the quantum dot laser designs and improve the understanding of complex operating conditions affecting the laser linewidth. This is achieved by developing a comprehensive laser simulator, that was applied to design and simulation of edge-emitting lasers and laser arrays. As a result, the optimized laser diodes have demonstrated a significantly lower linewidth compared to equivalent quantum well designs. Due to their narrow linewidth, the realized photonic devices can be a viable solution for high bit rate fiber-optic networks.

Book excerpt: stacked QD structure and is useful for examining the possibility of all optical measurement of stacked QD layers. Optical absorption spectra of self-assembled QDs has been little reported, and further investigation in necessary to study hole-burning memory. 2.5 Summary This chapter describes recent advances in quantum dot fabrication tech nologies, focusing on our self-formed quantum dot technologies including TSR quantum dots and SK-mode self-assembled quantum dots. As is described in this chapter, there are many possible device applications such as quantum dot tunneling memory devices, quantum dot fioating-dot gate FETs, quantum dot lasers, and quantum dot hole-burning memory devices. The quantum dot laser applications seem to be the most practicable among these applications. However, many problems remain to be solved before even this application becomes practical. The most important issue is to of self-assembled quantum dots more pre control the size and position cisely, with an accuracy on an atomic scale. The confinement must be enough to keep the separation energy between quantized energy levels high enough to get high-temperature characteristics. The lasing oscillation frequency should be fixed at 1.3 f.lITl or 1.5 f.lITl for optical communication. Phonon bottleneck problems should be solved by the optimization of device structures. Fortunately, there is much activity in the area of quantum dot lasers and, therefore, many breakthroughs will be made, along with the exploration of other new application areas.
