dc.description.abstractWe investigate many-body and nonequilibrium effects on the dynamical behavior of a quantum-dot laser diode. Simulations, based on the Maxwell-semiconductor-Bloch equations, show strong dependence of the turn-on delay on initial cavity detuning, because of a dynamical shift in the quantum-dot distribution caused by band gap renormalization. Gain switch behavior is found to be insensitive to inhomogeneous broadening, because the balancing between many-body and free-carrier effects inhibits a cavity resonance walk-off. Both the relaxation oscillation damping and frequency are found to increase with decreasing inhomogeneous broadening widths. However, in contrast to bulk and quantum-well lasers, oscillation damping increases less than the frequency.en
