Simulation of Semiconductor media in Photonic Devices using the Dynamic Thermal Electron Quantum Medium FDTD model

The capabilities of the Dynamic Thermal Electron Quantum Medium FDTD (DTEQM-FDTD) model in simulating semiconductor media and devices are illustrated. Both transient and steady-state carrier dynamics, along with associated physical phenomena are obtained. Using the same computational model, the operational dynamics of a Fabry-Perot laser cavity are further illustrated.
