  • Abstract
    A three-dimensional analysis is presented by using the transfer-matrix method for 1.55 mu m InGaAs BH MQW DFB lasers. It is shown that the coupling coefficient becomes maximum and the threshold current density becomes minimum at a certain number of wells, depending on the stripe width.
