Semi-analytic model for dispersion relation of nanowire lasers
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a semi-analytical model for the dispersion relation of nanowire lasers is presented. The approach which is based on the multi-conductor transmission line modeling, makes use of the Fourier expansion technique. The cross-section of the nanowire is assumed to be hexagonally-shaped. To determine the accuracy, the model results are compared to the numerical results obtained from FDTD (finite difference time domain) technique. The model error when using 40 layers in the multi-conductor transmission line modeling and keeping 8 Fourier expansion elements is about 13 percent. The error is a function of the number of layers, the distance between the set of nanowires assumed for Fourier expansion, and the number of Fourier elements considered in the model.

متن کاملSemi-analytic technique for analyzing mode-locked lasers.
A semi-analytic tool is developed for investigating pulse dynamics in mode-locked lasers. It provides a set of rate equations for pulse energy, width, and chirp, whose solutions predict how these pulse parameters evolve from one round trip to the next and how they approach their final steady-state values. An actively mode-locked laser is investigated using this technique and the results are in ...
