摘要
The effect of carrier-carrier relaxation on threshold and power-current characteristics of InAs and GaAs quantum well (QW) lasers is studied. Dependence of carrier relaxation time on temperature and carrier density is considered. It is shown that in this case the gain coefficient becomes a more pronounced function of temperature and carrier density, and threshold current density increases drastically.
