Modeling and parallel simulation of high power semiconductor lasers Para 2008: Applications of Parallel Computations on Industry Engineering
نویسنده
چکیده
Compact semiconductor lasers emitting single-frequency, diffraction limited beams at a continuous-wave (CW) optical power of several Watts are required for many applications including frequency conversion, free-space communications, and pumping of fibre lasers and fibre amplifiers. We discuss a mathematical model for the dynamics of such lasers. In order to simulate the long time dynamical behaviour a large system of several million variables has to be resolved for time steps of several orders of millions. Parallel simulation results and comparison with experimental data are given.

متن کاملImproving the Thermal Characteristics of Semiconductor Lasers Using a New Asymmetric Waveguide Structure
Self-heating leads to a temperature rise of the laser diode and limits the output power and efficiency due to increased loss and decreased differential gain. To control device self-heating, it is required to design the laser structure with a low optical loss, while the heat flux must spread out of the device efficiently. In this study, a new asymmetric waveguide design is proposed and th...
