Green edge emitting lasers with porous GaN cladding

Abstract

GaN lasers with green emission wavelength at λ = 510 nm have been fabricated using novel nano-porous GaN cladding under pulsed electrical injection. The low slope efficiency of 0.13 W/A and high threshold current density of 14 kA/cm2 are related to a combination of poor injection efficiency and high loss, analyzed by the independent characterization methods of variable stripe length and segmented contacts. Continuous wave operation showed narrowed spectra and augmented spontaneous emission.
