The modal gain competition between GS and ES are measured and analyzed around the ES threshold characteristics. Our results show that two-state competition is more significant in devices with short cavity length operating at high temperature. By comparing the as-grown and annealed devices, we demonstrate enhanced GS and suppressed ES lasing from the QD laser annealed at 600~{\textdegree}C for 15 s.", optnote="exported from refbase (https://db.rplab.ru/refbase/show.php?record=673), last updated on Thu, 15 Dec 2011 19:36:31 -0600" }
