Integrated photonics has profoundly affected a wide range of technologies underpinning
modern society,,–. The ability to fabricate a complete optical system on a chip offers …

Nitride‐based light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) suffer from a reduction (droop) of the internal
quantum efficiency with increasing injection current. This droop phenomenon is currently the …

In the last couple of decades, high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices based
on semiconductor heterostructures have been required to obtain increasingly strict and well …

We analyze the high-temperature continuous-wave performance of 1.3-/spl mu/m
AlGaInAs/InP laser diodes grown by digital alloy molecular-beam epitaxy. Commercial laser …

Light sources with ultra‐low energy consumption and high performance are required to
realize optical interconnects for on‐chip communication. Photonic crystal (PhC) nanocavity …

Semiconductor electronic and optoelectronic devices such as transistors, lasers, modulators,
and detectors are critical to the contemporary computing and communications infrastructure …

Due to the keen interest in improving the high-speed and high-temperature performance of
1.3-/spl mu/m wavelength lasers, we compare, for the first time, the material gain of three …

We present a comprehensive numerical model to simulate self-heating effects of oxide-
confined vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs) under continuous-wave operation …

We discuss the design and demonstration of highly efficient 1.55 µm hybrid III-V/Silicon
