Ad. Sadovnikov et al., A 2-DIMENSIONAL DFB LASER MODEL ACCOUNTING FOR CARRIER TRANSPORT EFFECTS, IEEE journal of quantum electronics, 31(10), 1995, pp. 1856-1862
A two-dimensional numerical model for DFB semiconductor laser simulati
on is developed and presented. In this model the transverse carrier tr
ansport and longitudinal spatial/spectral hole-burning effects in a bu
lk DFB laser are accounted for rigorously. Comparison with simplified
models is made. Methods for improving the accuracy of steady-state and
small-signal analyses by the simplified models are proposed and verif
ied.
