| Abstract | We have used an efficient analytical model to calculate the optical gain of the strained quantum-well laser of InGaAsP-InP material system. Based on the anisotropic effective mass theory, empirical formulas delineating the relations between optical gain, emission wavelength, well width and material compositions are obtained for 1.55-?m In1-xGaxAsyP1-y quaternary strained quantum-well lasers. Results show a logarithmic relation between the peak optical gain and carrier concentration for all possible material compositions of the quaternary system. We show that the logarithmic relation can be derived algebraically |
