Room temperature continuous wave lasing in InAs quantum-dot microdisks with air cladding.
We demonstrated the first room temperature continuous wave lasing in InAs quantum-dot microdisk lasers with a standard air-cladding optical confinement structure. The spectrum shows the single strong lasing peak at a wavelength of 1280 nm. The threshold pump power is 410 muW, and the corresponding effective threshold obtained by considering the absorption efficiency is 81 muW. This achievement is mainly attributed to the increase in Q factor by the improved disk shape.
