摘要
The two-dimensional (2-D) quantum-well (QW) laser diode simulator Minilase-II is presented in detail, This simulator contains a complete treatment of carrier dynamics including bulk transport, quantum carrier capture, spectral hole burning, and quantum carrier heating, The models used in the simulator and their connectivity are first presented. Then the simulator is used to demonstrate the effects of various nonlinear processes occurring in QW lasers, Finally, modulation responses produced by Minilase-II are compared directly with experimental data, showing good quantitative agreement.
