  • Patent number: 9190545
    Abstract: An optical device is provided including an active layer having two outer barriers and a coupled quantum well between the two outer barriers. The coupled quantum well includes a first quantum well layer, a second quantum well layer, a third quantum well layer, a first coupling barrier between the first quantum well layer and the second quantum well layer, and a second coupling barrier between the second quantum well layer and the third quantum well layer. A thickness of the first quantum well layer and a thickness of the third quantum well layer are each different from a thickness of the second quantum well layer. Also, an energy level of the first quantum well layer and an energy level of the third quantum well layer are each different from an energy level of the second quantum well layer.

  • Patent number: 9082909
    Abstract: Provided is an optical device which includes an active layer which includes at least two outer barriers and at least one coupled quantum well, each of the at least one coupled quantum well is sandwiched between the at least two outer barriers. Each of the at least one coupled quantum well includes at least three quantum well layers and at least two coupling barriers interposed between the at least three quantum layers. The at least two coupling barriers have a potential energy which is higher than a ground level and is lower than energy levels of the at least two outer barriers.
