Abstract :
The comprehensive self-consistent three-dimensional optical-electrical-gain-thermal self-consistent model of the oxide-confined long-wavelength 1.3-/spl mu/m (InGa)As/GaAs quantum-dot vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser is presented. The model has been used to modify and optimise VCSEL structure to reduce its anticipated room-temperature continuous-wave lasing threshold. Some essential guidelines for designers of laser sources for the second-generation 1.3-/spl mu/m communication systems are given.
