Abstract

We present the fabrication of a Quantum Dot Microcavity Light Emitting Diode (QD-MCLED) emitting at 1.3 μm at room temperature. The long wavelength emission is achieved by using for the first time InGaAs QDs directly grown on GaAs, by metal organic chemical vapour deposition. Electroluminescence bright emission, peaked at 1298 nm with a FWHM of 6.5 meV and a line shape independent on the applied bias is found.
