Theory of Gain, Modulation Response, and Spectral Linewidth in AlGaAs Quantum Well Lasers
We investigate theoretically a number of important issues rent have been considered before [ 151, [ 161, although the related to the performance of AlGaAs quantum well (QW) semicongain saturation effect was not explicitly treated, In Section ductor lasers. These include a basic derivation of the laser gain, the linewidth enhancement factor a, and the differential gain constant in I11 the fundam...
متن کاملGain Optimization in Optically Pumped AlGaAs Unipolar Quantum-Well Lasers
A method is described for the optimized design of quantum-well (QW) structures, in respect to maximizing the stimulated gain in optically pumped intersubband lasers. It relies on applying supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSYQM) to an initial Hamiltonian, in order to both map one bound state below the spectral range of the initial Hamiltonian, and to generate a parameter-controlled family of i...
متن کاملModulation Response and Relative Intensity Noise Spectra in Quantum Cascade Lasers
Static properties, relatively intensity noise and intensity modulation response in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) studied theoretically in this paper. The present rate equations model consists of three equations for the electrons density in the conduction band and one equation for photons density in cavity length. Two equations were derived to calculate the noise and modulation response. Calcula...
متن کاملOptical 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...
متن کاملSpectral linewidth in microcavity surface-emitting lasers
The Schawlow-Townes expression for the laser linewidth predicts a substantial cw linewidth enhancement in microcavity lasers, in which a large fraction of spontaneous emission is directed into the lasing mode, in contrast with conventional semiconductor lasers, in which the lasing mode accepts only a tiny fraction of spontaneously emitted photons. By performing a theoretical analysis of rigorou...
