Abstract: | The relaxation oscillation frequency of quantum dot lasers is modelled theoretically. Its dependency on the driving current, maximum gain, intersublevel relaxation time and homogeneous broadening is investigated. For suitable, feasible quantum dot laser parameters, relaxation oscillation frequencies up to 10 GHz are predicted. Making these devices useful for 5 Gbit/s communication systems |
