Numerical simulation, analysis and design of semiconductor optoelectronic devices based on quantum well and quantum dot materials - Ref. 366/2012

The realization of optoelectronic devices based on quantum well and quantum dot materials is of extreme practical interest in different fields, from telecom to medical sectors. The goal of this project is the numerical simulation of such devices, with attention to optical amplifiers and laser sources. For the first ones, the objective is their correct modelling when quantum dot active materials are used, paying particular attention to the definition of models able to describe their dynamic behaviour, allowing for the extraction of characteristic parameters from experimental measurements, finally permitting the design of new amplifiers. Regarding the optical sources, the main goal is the optimization of multi-sections structures with distributed feedback where the interaction between the lasing mode and another cavity mode allows increasing the modulation bandwidth.
