RWG MQW-LD has been made with our vertical LPE system from the optimal design condition for the RWG MQW-LD to be activated as weakly index-guided LD. Through several experiments we have established the growth condition which can be used through to grow the MQW-DH wafer and to control the thickness of MQW layer to ~200$\AA$. 4 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$-thickness of the ridge pattern has been formed through the photolithographic process on the MQW-DH wafer grown by the former condition, and then we have fabricated the RWG MQW-LD using it. From the result of measuring the electro-optical characteristics we can make sure that it can be lasing as lasing as laterally single mode at even more than $2.7I_{th}$.

Linwidth enhancement factor .alpha., linwidth, chirping and differential gain characteristics were measured and compared for each DFB-LDs containing active layers composed of bulk, MQW, and S-MQW, respectively. .alpha. of 6, 4 and 3.2 and chirping measured under 2.5Gbps modulation of 1.29nm, 0.67nm and 0.48nm were given for DFB-LDs of bulk, MQW and S-MQW active layers, respectively. And S-MQW has the largest differential gin of 2.4*10$^{-15}$ cm$^{2}$ (S-MQW) compared to the of 5.4*10$^{-16}$ cm$^{2}$(bulk) and 8.6*10$^{-16}$ cm$^{2}$(MQW). Linewidth enhancement facter .alpha. of less than 2 is expected with p-type modulation doped S-MQW DFB-LD.

Recently interest in the fabrication of LD operated by low current is gradually increasing as fabrication techniques of MQW-LD are progressed. In this viewpoint, theoretical estimation for decreasing the amount of threshold current will be helpful to design and make LD in case that active layer of conventional bulk type RWG-LD structure is replaced with MQW structure. Therefore, the optimum design condition of RWG MQW-LD was obtained from theoretical analysis in order to operate in the weakly index-guided LD and low threshold current. The lateral effective index step has been obtained in RWG MQW-LD structure. Waveguide mechanism including this index step has been investigated by solving the carrier diffusion equation and lateral wave equation. From these theoretical results, the optimum design condition of RWG MQW-LD have been suggested.

In this study, InGaAsP/InP MQW-DH wafer was grown by a vertical type LPE system and 10$\mu$m stripe MQW-LD was fabricated with the wafer. The threshold current was about 200 mA and when the cavity length of the LD was 470$\mu$m the central wavelenth of gain spectra was 1.32$\mu$m the lasing wavelength was 1.302$\mu$m which corresponded to the gain center of the quantum well thickness of 300 $\AA$.

In this study, the effects of indium (In) doping in InGaN/GaN multi quantum well (MQW) on photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties were investigated. Each quantum well (QW) layer with controlled In content were grown on sapphire substrate. Before growth of MQW, GaN growth consisted of various stages in the following order: buffer GaN growth, undoped GaN growth, and Si-doped n-type GaN growth. Absorbance of InGaN/GaN MQW having different In composition was higher than that of the InGaN/GaN MQW having a constant In composition. It indicates that InGaN layer having different In composition absorbs light having a broad spectrum energy. These results are in agreement with those in photoluminescence (PL). After evaluation of PEC properties, it demonstrated that InGaN/GaN MQW having different In composition was improved InGaN/GaN MQW having constant In composition in PEC water splitting ability.

The integration of a GaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum well electroabsorption modulator and a tapered waveguide vertical direction optical interconnect has been performed without the complicated regrowth process. Zn impurity-induced layer disordering of MQW layer is used to achieve the energy transfer between SQW and MQW regions. Light coupled into a SQW region was transferred to an MQW region and an intensity modulation of 10 dB extinction ratio was demonstrated.

The core-shell InGaN/GaN Multi Quantum Well-Nanowires (MQW-NWs) that were selectively grown on oxide templates with perfectly circular hole patterns were highly crystalline and were shaped as high-aspect-ratio pyramids with semi-polar facets, indicating hexagonal symmetry. The formation of the InGaN active layer was characterized at its various locations for two types of the substrates, one containing defect-free MQW-NWs with GQDs and the other containing MQW-NWs with defects by using HRTEM. The TEM of the defect-free NW showed a typical diode behavior, much larger than that of the NW with defects, resulting in stronger EL from the former device, which holds promise for the realization of high-performance nonpolar core-shell InGaN/GaN MQW-NW substrates. These results suggest that well-defined nonpolar InGaN/GaN MQW-NWs can be utilized for the realization of high-performance LEDs.

We present a novel method for simple and efficient analysis of the rectangular MQW waveguide. Preferentially two-dimensional structure is transformed into one-dimensional structure by using the effective index method. Then, the characteristic matrix of the resultant planar MQW waveguide is analyzed by scanning angle method. The effective index, modal intensity, and optical confinement factor of rectangular MQW waveguide can be effectively obtained by this method. Our simulation results show excellent agreement with the accurate solutions based on the finite element method. We also introduce the approximation methods for the analysis of rectangular MQW waveguide and investigate their validity. By using perturbation approach, modal power loss of guided wave in rectangular MQW waveguide is newly investigated and compared with the conventional method using the approximation of planar MQW waveguide.
