Abstract
The modeling of multimode operation in vertical-cavity
surface-emitting laser diodes is difficult because spatial interaction
between modes makes the problem very complex. In this paper, a novel
circuit model is presented for such lasers, which is based on spatially
dependent rate equations, and thus spatial hole burning and carrier
diffusion are taken into account. These effects are studied in
direct-modulated microwave vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers by
showing linear and nonlinear simulation examples in both time and
frequency domains.
