Electron beam pumped lasing in ZnSe/ZnSSe superlattice structures grown by molecular-beam epitaxy

We report the first operation of molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) grown ZnSe/ZnS/sub x/Se/sub 1-//sub x/ superlattice electron beam pumped lasers in the temperature range 100--300 K and the first room-temperature operation of MBE grown ZnSe on GaAs transverse geometry electron beam pumped lasers.

Zusammenfassung:We report the first operation of molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) grown ZnSe/ZnS/sub x/Se/sub 1-//sub x/ superlattice electron beam pumped lasers in the temperature range 100--300 K and the first room-temperature operation of MBE grown ZnSe on GaAs transverse geometry electron beam pumped lasers. Threshold current densities of 2.5 A/cm/sup 2/ at 100 K were achieved by both devices. At room temperature, threshold current was 5 A/cm/sup 2/ for the ZnSe devices and 12 A/cm/sup 2/ for the superlattice.
