Abstract:
On the basis of the developed numerical 2D semiconductor laser model, we study the effect of cavity parameters on optical losses and analyse the choice of the optimal cavity parameters for efficient operation under ultrahigh pulsed pump currents. It is shown that a maximum peak optical power for a certain pump current amplitude is achieved for a combination of optimal cavity parameters: the cavity length Lopt and the refractive index of the output mirror RAR opt. It is demonstrated that an increase in optical power with decreasing RAR is limited due to the formation of a local region with high optical losses and recombination loss currents near the high reflective mirror.
