Abstract
Quantum wire lasers (QWR-LD) have been found to have superior characteristics such as ultra low threshold current density (Jth)1 and less temperature dependency,2 etc., to quantum film lasers (QWF-LD). Recently, GaInP/AIInP compressive strained quantum wire lasers (CS-QWR-LD) were formed through natural rearrangement of composition by growing (GaP/InP) short period binary superlattice (SPBS).3 However a value of Jth was very high to be 2.5 kA/cm2 at room temperature,4 and it was higher even compared with GalnP/AIInP QWF-LDs.5
