A model of a single-mode Fabry-Perot semiconductor laser that predicts laser performance in analog transmission has been developed. The model is based on a time domain simulation of the rate equations for a semiconductor laser. The model can be used to plot the light versus current curve for a given laser'and subsequently the derivative of that curve. In addition, the response of the laser to step inputs can be simulated. Second and third order harmonic distortion and third order intermodulation distortion are measured by carrying out simulations in the time domain and then transforming the results to the frequency domain by FFT. These simulations can be used in the analysis of linearization methods for semiconductor lasers.
The hybrid position of continuing education between higher education and vocational education makes it possible to use references from both educational worlds. The aim is to integrate research and application orientation equally into competence-oriented and individualised study programmes. This workshop report focuses on the combination of theoretical references with practical experience in the format development of so-called research and practice projects in the context of the project ContinuING@TUHH.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
