Carrier dynamics and modulation properties in tunnel-injection based quantum-dot structures — •Michael Lorke, Stephan Michael, and Frank Jahnke — Institute für theoretische Physik, Universität Bremen

For tunnel-injection (TI) quantum-dot (QD) lasers record high small signal modulation bandwidth and improved performance of 1.55 µm InAs QDs on InP-based hetero-structures (1) were reported, which underscores their application potential for high-speed optical communication networks. We present a theoretical analysis of TI laser devices by combining material realistic electronic structure calculations with a many-body description of the carrier dynamics and the modulation properties. Based on these investigations, we give design guidelines to optimize the modulation bandwidth and turn-on delay.
