title = "GaAs-based dilute bismide semiconductor lasers: Theory vs. experiment",
abstract = "We present a theoretical analysis of the electronic and optical properties of near-infrared dilute bismide quantum well (QW) lasers grown on GaAs substrates. Our theoretical model is based upon a 12-band k·p Hamiltonian which explicitly incorporates the strong Bi-induced modifications of the band structure in pseudomorphically strained GaBixAs1-x alloys. We outline the impact of Bi on the gain characteristics of ideal GaBixAs1-x/(Al)GaAs devices, compare the results of our theoretical calculations to experimental measurements of the spontaneous emission (SE) and optical gain-A first for this emerging material system-and demonstrate quantitative agreement between theory and experiment. Through our theoretical analysis we further demonstrate that this novel class of III-V semiconductor alloys has strong potential for the development of highly efficient GaAs-based semiconductor lasers which promise to deliver uncooled operation at 1.55 μm.",
