Abstract

Under study are temperature dependences of laser characteristics of a GaAs/(AlGa)xOy microdisk of 6 μm in diameter, fabricated using optical lithography, ion milling with a beam of Ar+ ions, and selective oxidation of the Al0.97Ga0.03As layer which forms the microdisk base. In As/InGaAs QDs are used as the microdisk active region. Room-temperature lasing in the 1.3-μm range is observed, with the threshold optical pumping power of 160 μW. The quality factor of microdisk modes is about 104.
