Abstract

A circuit model of a quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier is proposed by employing standard rate equations. Using this model, the saturation property and dynamic performance of the quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier are analyzed by PSPICE simulation. We also investigate wavelength conversion based on cross-gain modulation for the quantum dot semiconductor optical amplifier. The corresponding results are in agreement with the previous published works.
