Popis: | Numerical simulations are used to study the effect of pump current modulation depth on the response of quantum-well GaInAs–GaInAsP heterolasers at different lasing frequencies within the gain band as a function of the excess above threshold. It is shown that the amplitude-frequency characteristics of these laser emitters generally contain two local maxima. The low frequency maximum usually corresponds to a resonance for the 1/2 subharmonic and the high frequency maximum, to the fundamental. As the modulation depth is increased, the fundamental frequency decreases, while the resonance frequency for the 1/2 subharmonic can change monotonically or not. The behavior found here can be used to develop quantum-well heterolasers with specified modulation parameters. |
