Non-Ideal Electrical Derivative Characteristics and Their Implications in Laser Diodes

  • 발행 : 1991.10.01

초록

The correlation between electrical (derivativer) characteristics and electro-optical conversion characteristics of laser diodes has been investigated both theoretically and experimentally with emphasis on the nonideal behavior. Laser diodes are electrically pumped devices with the current resulting from the carrier recombination dynamics, and their junction voltage is given by the separation of the quasi-Fermi levels which are determined by the injected carrier concentration. Thus most of the informaiton related to laser diode operation characteristics is reveraled in the electrical characteristics which are relatively simple to measure with sufficient accuracy. Therefore the measurement of electrical characteristics and their derivatives is a very useful tool of laser diode characteristion.
