摘要
Our numerical simulations of vertical cavity surface emitting lasers with Minilase demonstrate that a diffusion capacitance is induced by the minority carriers accumulated in the separate confinement regions. This diffusion capacitance is shown to be responsible for the over-damping of the modulation response and the reduction of the modulation bandwidth. It is also demonstrated that this diffusion capacitance is significantly suppressed by grading the separate confinement hetero-junctions (SCHs) or reducing the thickness of the SCHs. © 2002, Kluwer Academic Publishers.
