We have investigated the influence of the barrier height on the performance of InGaAsP MQW lasers emitting at 1.3 μm via simulations, direct hole transport time measurements and laser evaluation. The results from the simulation showed that very high barriers result in an increase in hole and electron concentrations at the p-side of the multiple quantum well (MQW). This leads to a severe increase in the Auger recombination rate. The measured hole transport time is clearly dependent on the barrier height in the MQW. Metal organic vapour phase epitaxy fabricated lasers with up to twelve periods and optimised barrier heights showed internal efficiency values above 95%, internal losses below 10 cm^<-1>, threshold densities as low as 60 Acm^<-2>/well and T_0 values as high as 79 K in the 20-80℃ temperature range. Our conclusion is that attention should be given to the valence band carrier distribution when designing low threshold, high optical output MQW lasers suitable for elevated temperature operation.
