Abstract

The paper reports on the lasing characteristics of InGaAs/InAlGaAs microdisk lasers. Microdisk lasers with 10-20 μm were fabricated using photolithographic techniques. The lasing threshold of InAlGaAs laser were found to be 2-4 times that of InGaAsP microdisk lasers. The higher threshold of the InAlGaAs material system could be due to its higher trap density and surface recombination.
