Bandwidth enhancement and optical performances of multiple quantum well transistor lasers

Optical ASK and FSK Modulation By Using Quantum Well Transistor Lasers

In this paper, transistor lasers (TLs) are used as an optical modulator for generation of ASK(Amplitude Shift Keying) and FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) optical signals. Our analysis is based on continuity equation, rate equations, and the theory of discontinuity of quasi-fermi level at the abrupt junction. Our simulation results indicate that, the specification of ASK and FSK optical signals, ar...

Bandwidth enhancement of Fabry-Perot quantum-well lasers by injection-locking

Theory and experiment for dc and small-signal electrical modulation of an injection-locked quantum-well (QW) Fabry-Perot laser are presented. Our experiment is realized by performing side-mode injection locking of a multiple-quantum-well (MQW) InGaAsP FabryPerot (FP) laser, which has the advantage of optical wavelength conversion. We first measure the dc characteristics and optical spectra of a...

The Effects of Strained Multiple Quantum Well on the Chirped DFB-SOA All Optical Flip-Flop

In this paper, based on the coupled-mode and carrier rate equations, a dynamic model and numerical analysis of a multi quantum well (MQW) chirped distributed feedback semiconductor optical amplifier (DFB-SOA)  all-optical flip-flop is precisely derived. We have analyzed the effects of strains of QW and MQW and cross phase modulation (XPM) on the dynamic response, and rise and fall times of the ...
