Current–voltage characteristics of long wavelength quantum-well laser diodes

This article presents an analysis of the derivatives of the current–voltage characteristics of long wavelength quantum-well laser diodes. It is found that the quantum size effect and the Auger recombination process significantly affect both the electrical derivatives and the diode ideality factor.
