ABSTRACT:
A quantum well is formed in the active region of a superluminescent diode by limiting the active region to a thickness on the order of the carrier deBroglie wavelength. Increased efficiency of recombination of electrons and holes due to the existence of the quantum well allows operation at threshold currents which are substantially proportional to cavity length. Variation in threshold current with temperature is also reduced.
