This paper discusses the issue of controlling the epitaxial growth of mixed group V alloys to form a type-I InGaAsSb/AlGaAsSb double quantum wells (QWs) structure. We also discuss the run-to-run reproducibility of lattice-matched AlGaAsSb alloys and strained InGaAsSb in terms of growth parameters (V/III ratio, Sb₂/As₂ ratio). Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) was used to grow two type-I InGaAsSb double-QWs laser structures differing only in the composition of the bottom cladding layer: AlGaAsSb (sample A) and AlGaAsSb (sample B). Both samples were respectively used in the fabrication of photonic crystal surface-emitting lasers (PCSELs). Sample A presented surface lasing action from circular as well as triangular photonic crystals. Sample B did not present surface lasing due to the deterioration of the active region during the growth of the upper cladding. Our findings underline the importance of temperature in the epitaxial formation of AlGaAsSb in terms of lasing performance.

Photonic-crystal (PC) surface-emitting lasers (SELs) with double-hole structure in the square-lattice unit cell were fabricated on GaSb-based type-I InGaAsSb/AlGaAsSb heterostructures. The relative shift of two holes was varied within one half of the lattice period. We measured the lasing wavelengths and threshold pumping densities of 16 PC-SELs and investigated their dependence on the double-hole shift.

The room-temperature PL results for the InAs/InGaAsSb QDs revealed stronger emission intensities than InAs QDs capped with an GaAs(1-x)Sb(x) (x = 20%)SRL, although both samples were grown under the same Sb flux during the molecular beam epitaxy process. The InAs/InGaAsSb QDs showed a significant elongation of emission wavelengths to 1450 and 1310 nm for the ground and first-excited state at room temperature.
