| Research Abstract |
This project is organized to establish device technologies aiming at bringing the quantum dot lasers into commercial market in thenear future.
We succeeded in optimizing self-assembled InAs quantum dots at the wavelength range from 1.3 -1.5 mm which is very important for optical communication applications. Finally 1.52 mm wavelength light emission was achieved by embedding InAs quantum dots not by GaAs but by InGaAs to suppress strain effects. In addition, quantum dot laser structures involving photonic crystals by developing selective era growth technique.
We have shown theoretically improvement ratio by introducing quantum dots in GaN-bases systems is much bigger than that in GaAs systems. In addition we established growth condition for blue light emitting GaN-based quantum dot for laser applications. Finally we succeeded in operating InGaN quantum dot lasers at room temperature by optical pumping method. We also show GaN quantum dots on A1N for UV laser applications.
In summary, we have succeeded in fabricating quantum dot lasers and establishing material growth technology for future photonic network IT technologies.
