Outline  Motivation  Experimental technique  Material system: InGaAs  Conclusion

Motivation laser diodes light-emitting diodes  light is good!  heat is bad!

Motivation (continued) collection efficiency = ? internal reflection scattering refraction reabsorption

Measuring the efficiency light in heat signal  light out light in = heat + light out  T  heat efficiency = light in / light out

Experimental set-up light in light out - heat

Efficiency calibration increasing excitation excitation  light + heat
