Abstract :
A model that accounts for the switching operation of a photonic crystal micro-cavity is presented. The model accounts for the bipolar drift-diffusion in the micro-cavity. The impact of surface recombination on the surface charge and carrier transport is modelled self-consistently. The optical fields in the micro-cavity are modelled using coupled-mode theory.
