Abstract

Below threshold measurements of the carrier induced refractive index change in 1.3 μm quantum-dot lasers at resonance and also below bandgap were carried out. It is demonstrated that free-carrier absorption contributes approximately half the total index change, and that its relative contribution is a function of device length. This result gives a lower bound to phase-amplitude coupling in quantum-dot lasers.
