Аннотация:Numerical calculations of uniaxial stress P influence on the energy spectrum, wave functions and the optical gain of TE and TM polarization modes in strained p-AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs1-yPy/n-AlxGa1-xAs laser diode structures have been performed for a number of samples with different combination of the phosphorous content “y” and the quantum well width L that reveal “light hole up” configuration of hole spectrum in valence band quantum well at P = 0. The Luttinger-Kohn Hamiltonian with strained terms was self consistently solved with Poisson equation for the electrostatic potential using the finite-difference k×p method for samples with y = 0.02; 0.04; 0.10; 0.16 and L = 40; 90; 140 Ǻ under uniaxial stress P along [110] direction and temperature T = 77 K.
