Xy. Wu et al., THE PHOTOINDUCED CARRIER DISTRIBUTION IN A SEMICONDUCTOR WAVE-GUIDE AND THE FDTD ANALYSIS FOR MILLIMETER-WAVE PROPAGATION, Microwave and optical technology letters, 13(1), 1996, pp. 35-38
Exact solutions for millimeter-wave propagation in an optically contro
lled rectangular semiconductor waveguide were presented. This was impl
emented by strictly solving the continuity equation that the photoindu
ced carriers hold and by finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD) modeling
for the wave propagation in the waveguide. The laser intensity depend
ence of the millimeter-wave signal's amplitude and phase shift was obt
ained. Excellent agreement between numerical results and experiments w
as found. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
