IB devices have yet to produce any high efficiencies. Existing devices did not optimize such parameters as their layer thicknesses, because there was no device model that could treat all the IB-specific effects, e.g., charge transport within the IB and IB-filling-dependent absorptivity and photofilling. We present Simudo, a finite element optoelectronic device model that implements these effects, in addition to treating standard semiconductors. Simudo models charge transport and generation in the conduction, valence, and a number of intermediate bands. It solves the coupled Poisson/drift-diffusion equations in two dimensions, along with self-consistent optics for IB-filling-dependent absorption. We validate this new software by benchmarking it against Synopsys Sentaurus on a pn-diode test problem, and we show excellent agreement. Simudo enables optimization of devices as well as understanding of experimental results, bringing the well-established value of device modeling semiconductors to IB systems.","PeriodicalId":369769,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices (NUSOD)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124825268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We address the impact of interface grading in distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs), modulation doping of the DBRs and surrounding layers of the quantum well (QW) as well as material-dependent carrier mobilities and recombination constants and are focused on oxide-confined GaAs/AlGaAs VC-SELs. We evaluate both depletion and diffusion capacitance and show that both contributions to the capacitance as well as the differential series resistance critically depend on the injection current and chip design such that, in general, VCSEL cannot be properly modeled by an equivalent circuit approximation. Current profiles demonstrate significant inrease of the current density at the edges of the oxide-confined aperture (current crowding) which could be supressed by a proper design.","PeriodicalId":369769,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Conference on Numerical Simulation of Optoelectronic Devices (NUSOD)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126810129","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
