Figure 3.Light emission from indium phosphide (InP) quantum-dot laser diode shown in Fig. 2. (a) Red laser emission emerging from the mirrors of the laser structure. (b) Spectrum of laser output below and above threshold current, jthr. Spectrum below threshold current (j?=?0.58 jthr) is magnified 250 times relative to spectrum above threshold current (j?=?1.06 jthr).
