Abstract

Different confinement structures are analyzed to achieve higher optoelectronic performances for double quantum well vertical cavity transistor laser with graded index separate confinement heterostructure. Adding the drift component to the diffusion term of the current density and solving new sets of equations, modified electro-optic performances of the device is obtained. Band-gap engineering of the original structure predicts simultaneous improvements in both current gain (more than two times) and −3 dB optical bandwidth (by 1.5 GHz). Other less critical, yet important, performance metrics including optical output power and threshold current (up to 20%) are enhanced due to applying graded layers of AlξGa1-ξAs in the base region.
