  • Abstract
    In this paper we have investigated numerically the performance of AlGaAs/GaAs multi-quantum well superluminescent diodes. In this device the dependence of optical gain, output power on the cavity length and the density states have been analyzed. It is observed that the optical gain and its FWHM bandwidth increase with increasing the density state. Also, the output power increases with increasing the cavity length, whereas the FWHM bandwidth decreases..
