Semiconductor quantum dot lasers epitaxially grown on silicon with low linewidth enhancement factor

Abstract

This work reports on the ultra-low linewidth enhancement factor (αH-factor) of semiconductor quantum dot lasers epitaxially grown on silicon. Owing to the low density of threading dislocations and resultant high gain, an αH value of 0.13 that is rather independent of the temperature range (288 K–308 K) is measured. Above the laser threshold, the linewidth enhancement factor does not increase extensively with the bias current which is very promising for the realization of future integrated circuits including high performance laser sources.
