Abstract
A method is proposed for determination of the pulse-to-pulse variation in junction temperature and emission wavelength of a semiconductor laser diode during a train of pulses. This approach, based on impulse response functions, enables predictions for pulse trains with arbitrary pulse-to-pulse variations in output power, pulse width, and pulse delay using a limited set of experimental characterization data. The use of this approach is illustrated by application to a particular device structure.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics is dedicated to the publication of manuscripts reporting novel experimental or theoretical results in the broad field of the science and technology of quantum electronics. The Journal comprises original contributions, both regular papers and letters, describing significant advances in the understanding of quantum electronics phenomena or the demonstration of new devices, systems, or applications. Manuscripts reporting new developments in systems and applications must emphasize quantum electronics principles or devices. The scope of JQE encompasses the generation, propagation, detection, and application of coherent electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths below one millimeter (i.e., in the submillimeter, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, etc., regions). Whether the focus of a manuscript is a quantum-electronic device or phenomenon, the critical factor in the editorial review of a manuscript is the potential impact of the results presented on continuing research in the field or on advancing the technological base of quantum electronics.
