Abstract
Recently, the optical injection influence on lasers based on the QDs in a quantum well (QDWELL) structure has been investigated. The optical injection results in the carrier dynamics synchronization and the QDWELL laser performance improvement. In this paper, we for the first time studied theoretically a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) based on the QDWELL structure where the probe wave plays a role of the optical injection. We obtained the basic characteristics of a novel type of SOA based on QDWELL structure.
