Abstract
This chapter describes how laser diodes for optical communication, with their complex structure and physical interactions can be simulated. These lasers are usually of such a nature that variations in the lateral and transverse direction, as well as the electronic transport problem can be treated in a most simplified way, while longitudinal and spectral variations need to be taken into account in a detailed way.
