Abstract
The threshold of semiconductor lasers is drastically reduced by injection of spin polarized electrons if the laser meets specific design rules. Taking into account the challenges of spin injection, spin transport, and spin relaxation, we discuss the threshold reduction in surface- and edge-emitting spin lasers at room temperature.
