Abstract

Extracting the parameters of a laser from the measured results is critical for laser design, modeling and optimization. This work presents a parameter extraction method for quantum well distributed feedback (DFB) lasers based on the one-dimensional traveling wave model (1D TWM). Facet reflectivities, grating coupling coefficient and the other parameters can be extracted by fitting the lasing spectrum, light-current (L-I) curve, intensity modulation (IM) response and large-signal chirp. During the extraction progress, the 1D TWM is simplified to improve the extraction efficiency. The feasibility of this extraction method is verified by extracting parameters from preset simulation results and experimental results, respectively. The 1D TWM can reflect the physical properties of the laser profoundly and the parameter extraction method based on 1D TWM will be a valuable tool for laser design, optimization or processing improvement.
