Abstract:
The operating characteristics of semiconductor quantum-well lasers, calculated with consideration for an increase in the internal optical loss in the waveguide region with increasing pump current, are presented. The condition of global electroneutrality in the structure is used. This condition consists in that the total charge of electrons in the 2D active region (quantum well) and bulk waveguide region (optical confinement layer) is equal to the total charge of holes in these two regions. Good agreement between the calculated and experimentally determined light–current characteristics is obtained.
