The current threshold for lasing in GaAs is strongly temperature-dependent,... At low temperature(up to approximately 30 °K) the threshold is fairly constant. Above 100 °K, the threshold current density for laser operation increases rapidly with increasing temperature. 1, record 1, English, - threshold%20current%20density

L'avantage des lasers à points quantiques tiendrait à une nette augmentation d'intensité en fonction du courant d'excitation. Les meilleurs résultats jusqu'à ce jour, qui ne font toujours pas l'unanimité, indiquent qu'un laser à PQ d'InGaAs sur GaAAs, fonctionnant à une température de 77 K, présente une densité de courant de seuil de 120 A/cm2, soit environ cinq fois le rendement à température ambiante des lasers à puits quantiques actuels les plus perfectionnés. 2, record 1, French, - densit%C3%A9%20de%20courant%20de%20seuil
