Description :	Bismuth-containing III-V alloys open-up a range of possibilities for practical applications in semiconductor lasers, photovoltaics, spintronics, photodiodes and thermoelectrics. Of particular promise for the development of semiconductor lasers is the possibility to grow GaAsBi laser structures such that the spin-orbit-splitting energy (ΔSO) is greater than the bandgap (Eg) in the active region for devices operating around the telecom wavelength of 1.55 µm, thereby suppressing the dominant efficiency-limiting loss processes in such lasers, namely Auger recombination and inter-valence band absorption (IVBA). The ΔSO > Eg band structure is present in GaAsBi alloys containing > 10% Bi, at which composition the alloy band gap is close to 1.55 µm on a GaAs substrate making them an attractive candidate material system for the development of highly efficient, uncooled GaAs-based lasers for telecommunications. Here we discuss progress towards this goal and present a comprehensive set of data on the properties of GaAsBi lasers including optical gain and absorption characteristics and the dominant carrier recombination processes in such systems. Finally, we briefly review the potential of GaAsBiN and InGaAsBi material systems for near- and mid-infrared photonic devices on GaAs and InP platforms, respectively. Made possible by the following grants: Efficient Photonic Devices for Near- and Mid-Infrared Applications; Exploring Short Wavelength Limits for High Performance Quantum Cascade Lasers; Realising a solid state photomultiplier and infrared detectors through Bismide containing semiconductors; BIsmide And Nitride Components for High temperature Operation
