12. 100 nm is still a large dimension to really get one-dimensional (1D) confinement effects such as injection bottleneck. However, it starts to show the 1D effect for InGaAs wire. See, e.g., G. Lehr, R. Bergmann, R. Rudeloff, F. Scholz, and H. Schweizer, Appl. Phys. Lett. 61, 517 (1992); G. Lehr, Ph. D. dissertation, Stuttgart, 1994.

17. The carrier injection processes for optical and electrical pump are quite different. The optical method has the advantage to avoid electrical parasitic effect.
