Abstract
AlInGaN based blue and blue-green LDs were investigated with regard to the characteristics of GaN semiconductor laser diodes. High power, single mode blue LDs with high COD level (~334mW under CW operation at 25°C, kink-free at 150mW) and long lifetime (~10000 hours under CW operation, 50mW 25°C) were achieved. No significant characteristic differences between blue LDs on LEO-GaN/sapphire and GaN substrate were observed. The blue-green LD which has the wavelength of 485 nm was successfully fabricated and demonstrated under CW operation 25°C, while it showed poor performances of LD characteristics compared to those of blue LDs. We believe that the poor performance of blue-green LDs were caused by the piezo-electric effect by lattice mismatch along C-axis of GaN, In fluctuation by lattice mismatch and In solubility limit in InGaN QWs and thermal annealing which was performed during the p-layer growth.
