Abstract

In this paper, a time-domain (TD) traveling-wave (TW) model based on the Effective Semiconductor Maxwell-Bloch Equations (ESMBEs) and a coupled-mode theory is proposed for the description of the dynamics of a mid-Infrared (mid-IR) Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) in the Distributed-Feedback (DFB) configuration. The influence of physical and geometrical properties on the QCL's dynamics is investigated. Numerical simulations find good agreement with the experimental results obtained with a DFB QCL operating at 9.34 μm.
