A new set of MQW LD rate equations is proposed that include the interwell carrier transport effect assuming it is dominated by holes. Solving the rate equations, the DC transient response of MQW was obtained and it was shown that uneven carrier concentrations exist due to the interwell carrier transport effect. In addition, it was found that the large number of quantum wells can limit the LD modulation speed and InGaAlAs barriers with smaller valence band offsets can have larger modulation speeds. It is expected that the proposed rate equations can find useful applications in designing the optimal MQW LD structures for high speed applications.

The modulation performance of 10 Gbps electro-absorption InGaAsP/InGaAsP strain compensated MQW (Multiple Quantum Well) modulator module depends on the modulator as well as the package parasitics. The high frequency package parasitics resulting from various structural discontinuities, limit the modulation bandwidth and increase the chirp-parameter. Therefore, we propose the double bondwires embedded in dielectric materials to minimize the bondwire parasitics. Using the proposed structure with 50 $\Omega$ terminating resistor, the modulation bandwidth is greatly increased by 125 % than the bare chip and the chirp-parameter is also reduced. This technique can be used in optimizing the package of high speed external modulators.

Among many optical modulators, we are interested in traveling-wave(TW) multiple quantum well(MQW) electro-absorption modulator which can be used for wide-band applications, covering DC to 30GHz or higher frequencies. In this study, we simulate a 1.3mm InGaAs/lnGaAsP TW MQW EAM using the 3D Finite Difference-Time Domain (FDTD) method. We identify that several geometric factors affect Microwave charateristics. Our calculated data provide useful information to optimize and fabricate ridge-type TW CPW EAM.

A simple transfer matrix algorithm to analyze the properties of 2 dimensional waveguides is introduced. We applied this algorithm to strained InGaAs/InGaAsP GINSCH MQW laser structures. We studied how optical confinement factor and effective refractive index, which are important in calculating the modal gain, depend on the structure parameters such as waveguide width, shape of GRIN, and number of quantum wells. Especially we suggested that the concept of effective waveguide width is very useful in understanding the GRINSCH waveguide.

An optimum parasitic inductance is observed for maximizing the modulation bandwidth of the multiple quantum well (MQW) electro-absorption optical modulator. For 1.1 pF device cpaacitance of the current MQW optical modulator, the optimum parasitic inductances for maximum bandwidth are calculated for different terminating resistors. In ase of 50.ohm. terminating resistor, the 3-dB modulation bandwidth can be increased 45% wider by using the optimum parasitic inductance than nothing parasitic inductance. This calculated optimum inductance can be practically implemented, since the parasitic inductance of bondwires can be accurately analyzed using the method of moments (MoM) and controlled by changing the length and shpae of bondwires.

In this work, we proposed the asymmetric MQW structure with gradually increased or decreased well thickness from n-layers to p-layers in order to improve the performance of DUV-LEDs. We report the simulation results of electrical/optical characteristics by using the SimuLED program. From the simulation results, we found that B structure with thickness of the wells gradually increased from the n-side to the p-side has the same forward voltage(Vf) as standard structure, but the light output power (Pout) was improved by a factor of 1.17 at 20mA compared with those of the standard structure.

In this study, we performed growth of InGaN/GaN multi quantum well (MQW) structures on semi-polar (1-10]) GaN facet on 8-degree off oriented stripe patterned (100) Si substratcs by MOVPE. The structural and optical properties of the InGaN/GaN multi quantum well (MQW) structures grown on (1-101) GaN stripe depend on $NH_3$ flow rate, TMI flow rate and growth temperature are characterized by cathodoluminescence (CL) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). With the decrease of $NH_3$ flow rate, the threading dislocation of (1-101) GaN is considerably reduced. We could control the transition wavelength of InGaN/GaN MQW structures from 391.5 nm to 541.2 nm depend on the growth conditions.

ZnO is a promising material for the application of high efficiency light emitting diodes with short wavelength region for its large bandgap energy of 3.37 eV which is similar to GaN (3.39 eV) at room temperature. The large exciton binding energy of 60 meV in ZnO provide provides higher efficiency of emission for optoelectronic device applications. Several ZnO/ZnMgO multiple quantum well (MQW) structures have been grown on various substrates such as sapphire, GaN, Si, and so on. However, the achievement of high quality ZnO/ZnMgO MQW structures has been somehow limited by the use of lattice-mismatched substrates. Therefore, we propose the optical properties of ZnO/ZnMgO multiple quantum well (MQW) structures with different well widths grown on lattice-matched ZnO substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra show MQW emissions at 3.387 and 3.369 eV for the ZnO/ZnMgO MQW samples with well widths of 2 and 5 nm, respectively, due to the quantum confinement effect. Time-resolved PL results show an efficient photo-generated carrier transfer from the barrier to the MQWs, which leads to an increased intensity ratio of the well to barrier emissions for the ZnO/ZnMgO MQW sample with the wider width. From the power-dependent PL spectra, we observed no PL peak shift of MQW emission in both samples, indicating a negligible built-in electric field effect in the ZnO/$Zn_{0.9}Mg_{0.1}O$ MQWs grown on lattice-matched ZnO substrates.
