Carrier Transport in Multiple Quantum Well Region of InGaAsP/InP Structures
Chapter
Abstract
After injection by a current pulse, initial carrier distribution between the quantum wells (QW) of a multiple QW laser is highly nonuniform1. For a laser to operate effectively, it is desirable that all the QWs equally contribute to the lasing action. As far as the high frequency modulation is concerned, the rate of the carrier transport and redistribution between the QWs should be considerably faster than the modulation rate.
