초록

The external feedback effect on the relative intensity noise (RIN) characteristics of blue InAlGaN laser diode has been analyzed taking into account the spontaneous emission noise and the injection current for the high frequency modulation. A Langevin diffusion model was exploited to characterize its relative intensity noise. The simulation parameters were quantitatively evaluated from the optical gain properties of the InAlGaN multiple quantum well active regions by using the multiband Hamiltonian for the strained wurtzite crystals. The extracted parameters were then applied to the rate equations taking into account the external feedback and the high frequency modulation current. The RIN characteristics were investigated to optimize the low frequency laser diode noise characteristics.
