Abstract
A decrease in the lasing threshold with increasing temperature has been observed in InAs/InAsSbP laser heterostructures for the 2.7–2.9 μm spectral range at cryogenic temperatures (T=32–85 K). At temperatures below 50 K a negative characteristic temperature, T 0=−70 K, was obtained for the threshold current. Characteristics of the temperature dependence of the threshold current and the laser output power were investigated.
