Abstract :
An analysis of the interaction of optical modes with the active region of an L.e.d. leads to simple design recommendations both for front- and edge-emitting structures. If used in conjunction with mode transformers, both diodes could provide more than I mW of optical power for multimode-fibre transmission.
