Abstract
We characterize the electro-optical and lasing properties of a hybrid material consisting of multiple InAs quantum dot (QD) layers together with an InGaAs quantum well (QW) grown on a GaAs substrate. Over 40 nm Stark shift of the InGaAs QW leading to 9 dB extinction ratio was demonstrated. Lasing operation at the QD first excited state transition of 1070 nm was achieved and together with < 10 ps absorption recovery the system shows promise for high-speed mode-locked lasers and electro-modulated lasers.
