Theoretical study of small signal modulation behavior of Fabry-Perot Germanium-on-Silicon lasers
Abstract
This work investigated the small signal performance of Fabry-Perot Ge-on-Si lasers by modeling and simulations. The 3dB bandwidth dependence on the structure parameters such as poly-Si cladding thickness, Ge cavity width and thickness, and minority carrier lifetime were studied. A 3dB bandwidth of 33.94 GHz at a biasing current of 270.5 mA is predicted after Ge laser structure optimization with a defect limited carrier lifetime of 1 ns.
