The rate equations are used to analyze the characteristics of a tandem consisting of a laser diode and a semiconductor optical amplifier made of a single heterostructure with quantum dots. The optimal value of the current distribution coefficient the amplifier and the laser, as well as the optimal resonator length that provides the highest output power of the tandem were determined. It is shown that the use of the tandem allows, at the same total consumed current, to significantly (more than 4 times for 1 A) increase the power emitted through the ground-state optical transition in comparison with that achievable with a laser diode solely being limited by the onset of lasing through an excited-state optical transition.

Gain saturation in a semiconductor optical amplifier with an array of quantum dots was studied analytically and by numerical simulation on the basis of an analysis of the rate equations. It is shown that, at a moderate injection level, the saturation power increases in proportion to the current density, and then reaches its maximum value, limited by the rate of capture of charge carriers to the ground state and by the number of quantum dots interacting with photons. Expressions are proposed that allow an explicit description of the dependence of the saturation power on the current and its relationship with the internal parameters of the active region.

ABSTRACTWe show that two major carrier excitation mechanisms are present in II-VI self-assembled quantum dots. The first one is related to direct excited state – ground state transition. It manifests itself by the presence of sharp and intense lines in the excitation spectrum measured from single quantum dots. Apart from these lines, we also observe up to four much broader excitation lines. The energy spacing between these lines indicates that they are associated with absorption related to longitudinal optical phonons. By analyzing resonantly excited photoluminescence spectra, we are able to separate the contributions from these two mechanisms. In the case of CdTe dots, the excited state – ground state relaxation is important for all dots in ensemble, while phonon-assisted processes are dominant for the dots with smaller lateral size.

ABSTRACTThe results to be presented focus on the optimization of tellurite glass compositions which are suitable both for doping with erbium oxide as well as subsequent for fiber drawing. The laser related properties, such as fluorescence spectrum, lifetime, and optical transition cross sections will be presented. Judd-Ofelt parameters for erbium in the glasses have been exploited to predict fluorescence lifetime, excited state absorption(ESA), ground state absorption(GSA) and ground state fluorescence(GSF). For comparison, the absorption cross section, emission cross section, excited state absorption(ESA)/ground state absorption(GSA)(0.8μm pumping) and fluorescence terminating in the ground state(GSF)/excited state absorption(ESA) ratios are calculated for both Al2O3-SiO2 and tellurite glasses.
