High-power quantum dot lasers with improved temperature stability of emission wavelength for uncooled pump sources

915 nm quantum dot lasers with temperature stable emission wavelengths have been realised for uncooled high-power applications. Broad area lasers with optimised dot geometry exhibit a thermal induced wavelength shift of 0.09 nm/K, which is 3.5 times lower than for quantum well lasers. Despite this improvement the lasers show high output powers of more than 3 W and wallplug efficiencies of 55% in continuous-wave operation.
