Four-wave mixing conversion in QD SOA : reservoir effects

الملخص EN

In this paper, it is present a model to simulate Four-wave mixing in quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier, taking into account the influence of carrier heating at reservoir.

The numerical calculations show that; the carrier heating relaxation at reservoir demonstrates a significant impact on excited state occupation probability, and opposite occurs with ground state.

Also, the conversion efficiency is shown a good match with experiment data.
