In this paper, the spectral responsivity of a photodetector is determined by extracting optical parameters (refractive index and extinction coefficients) from the reflectivity measurement data and by treating the surface recombination velocity as a free parameter. A transfer matrix method based model has been implemented to compute the optical fields within the device. The electrical simulation was performed using ISE TCAD simulation package.

A three-dimensional (3D) simulation of the photonic components within an integrated optical-electrical-optical wavelength converter is presented. The converter design includes a 50 /spl mu/m long waveguide photodiode (WPD) which detects the incoming signal at any wavelength of the C band, e.g. at /spl lambda//sub in/ = 1530 nm. The optical signal is converted into an electrical signal that directly modulates a sampled-grating distributed Bragg-reflector (SGDBR) laser diode which is integrated with a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) for signal enhancement. The SGDBR laser can be tuned to emit at any wavelength of the C band, e.g., at /spl lambda//sub out/ = 1550 nm. The epitaxial structure of the different components is found to be similar. An offset multi-quantum-well (MQW) active region is grown on top of the waveguide region. A ridge waveguide structure is etched through the MQW region. Passive device sections are formed by etching off the MQWs completely.

We present detailed theoretical and experimental investigations on gain and absorption spectra of multi-type AlGaInAs QW structures in the 1.3 /spl mu/m wavelength regime. Such QW combination offer the possibility of efficient forward and reverse operation, e.g. as required for monolithically integrated laser-modulator devices. Measurement results are in good agreement with theoretical predictions, achieving a basic modal absorption as low as 60 cm/sup -1/, a maximum absorption change of 100 cm&/sup -1/V/sup -1/ and a DFB threshold current of 17 mA at room temperature. With the developed procedure and extracted parameters, a powerful tool is available to optimize the static gain and absorption modulation of single-and multi-type AlGaInAs QWs.

Abstrocr- The high-speed characteristics of communication p*i-n+ photodiodes mcluding frequency respoare and responsMty are both degraded by high radiation fields in space. Deep levels generated by high-energy particles decrease the signal strength and reduce the generation reambination ldetime and dark curreui, reducing the signal-to noiae ratio (SNR), The use of lower temperatures as a means of restoring the SMI has been proposed in previous studies. Here we investigate the possibility theoretically using Technology CAD simulation.

A systematic methodology for the calibration of laser simulation environment is presented. This allows device designers to obtain good agreement between measurements and simulations in short time. The procedure is based on the laser simulator DESSIS-Laser and the TCAD environment GENESISe, which provides pre-processing, post-processing and numerical optimization tools. The device under investigation is a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown InGaAs/AlGaAs narrow stripe laser with graded-index carrier confinement (GRICC) and a single quantum-well (SQW) active region.

A thermodynamic designed energy model for semiconductor devices is discussed. A system of evolution equations based on an expression for the density of the free energy is derived. First principles such as entropy maximum principle and the principle of partial local equilibrium are applied. The free energy is assumed as the sum of the internal free energy and the electrostatic field energy. A 1.55 /spl mu/m RW MQW laser is used in the simulations.
