The performance of directly modulated quantum dot (QD) lasers, used for 1.55 µm telecommunication, is limited by the intraband carrier relaxation time as well as thermally broadened hole distribution effects. These properties could be improved by using a so-called tunnel injection (TI) scheme or the introduction of p-type doping into the active region of a high-speed laser design. Conventional QD lasers are directly compared to QD lasers with TI, p-type doping and both. The QD density and uniformity are nominally the same for all devices. Small signal modulation measurements yielded higher bandwidths for the QD lasers in comparison to the TI QD lasers. P-type doping greatly improved the performance of TI QD lasers and more refined doping profiles are promising to further enhance the modulation properties. Large signal modulation measurements showed a maximum data rate of more than 25 Gbit/s for both laser types, which is already suitable for telecom applications.
