Abstract

The article presents an investigation on the spontaneous emission from strained and unstrained devices for the observation of strain induced changes in the valence bands and to measure the threshold gain of the lasers. The compressively strained (AlyGa1-y)xIn1-xP QW lasers were used for the study with strain ranging from 0% to 1%. And the spontaneous emission was studied through a narrow window etched into the upper contact of the lasers.
