Gain characteristics of InGaN quantum wells with AlGaInN barriers

A reduction of the threshold current density of InGaN quantum well (QW) lasers is found from the usage of AlGaInN barriers. Large bandgap and strain-managing AlGaInN barriers surrounding the InGaN quantum wells’ (QWs) active regions are investigated via the 6-band self-consistent k·p formalism for t...
