Abstract
The quantum carrier capture time in a quantum well laser is calculated as a function of temperature and bias current. The calculated results show good consistency with recent measurements on the small signal fr equency response of a quantum well laser at cryogenic temperatures. Th is calculation reveals some of the characteristics of longitudinal opt ical phonon assisted quantum carrier capture phenomena in quantum well structures. (C) 1995 American Institute of Physics.
