Power Conversion Efficiency in a Quantum Dot Based Diode Laser

Abstract

Power conversion efficiency of diode lasers with the active region based on a quantum dot array is under investigation. The model is proposed which allows one to estimate analytically the optimal cavity length corresponding to the maximum power conversion efficiency at a given output power. The model is compared with the experimental results from high-power O.94-micrometer diode lasers based on sub-monolayer quantum dots.
