Abstract :
The physical model was founded by Crosslight Apsys software for new type of photonic memory cell based on a quantum dot (QD)-quantum well (QW) hybrid structure. The physical mechanisms involved such as interband optical transition of quantum dots. The scan conditions and iterative algorithm was also set up to finish solving. Photon storage process has well proved based on I-V curve and transient time response obtained from the model. These are crucial in the signal readout-circuit design afterward.
