Take a Comprehensive Approach to Laser Simulation

In active devices, thermal flux and carrier transport can strongly affect overall performance through spatial hole burning and self-heating. Easily account for these and other important processes within a self-consistent scheme using RSoft LaserMOD. LaserMOD is a photonic device design tool that simulates the optical, electronic, and thermal properties of semiconductor lasers and similar active devices.

  • Work within a versatile, user-friendly, parametric computer-aided design (CAD) interface.
  • Access all simulation modules included in a single package.
  • Support a range of applications, such as cylindrical vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) design.

RSoft LaserMOD – FAQ

LaserMOD is a photonic device design software tool for simulating the optical, electronic, and thermal properties of semiconductor lasers and similar active devices.

With LaserMOD, you can support applications for the following device types:

  • Edge emitting lasers, such as Fabry-Perot, distributed feedback (DFB), and distributed Bragg reflector (DBR)
  • VCSEL
  • Silicon modulators (electro-absorptive, electro-refractive, and thermo-optic modulators in silicon and other semi-conductor materials)
  • Hybrid and multilevel applications, when combined with other RSoft tools

LaserMOD simulates the properties of semiconductor lasers, including VCSELs. With LaserMOD, you can account for the critical processes involved in VCSEL design through a user-friendly interface.
