Objective
This project is concerned with the development of a new class of long-wavelength (1.3/1.55-µm) emitters for fibre-optical communication systems, as based on GaAs with improved characteristics as compared to InP. The materials considered are the low-bandgap Nitrides GaInNAs and GaAsSbN as well as GaAsSb/GaInAs bilayer type-II quantum wells. The materials will be grown by MBE and MOVPE and optimised with respect to layer structures, growth conditions and post-growth thermal treatments. 1.3µm VCLs will be fabricated first-hand using mature processing technologies available in the consortium for short-wavelength VCLs. An important goal is the realisation of a 4X1 VCL array with integrated photodetectors for output signal monitoring. A broad range of 1.3-1.6µm edge-emitting lasers will also be investigated. This includes 1.3µm FP lasers, 1.3/1.55µm DFB ridge lasers, ridge lasers with spot-size converters, and high-speed buried heterostructure lasers.
