For tunnel-injection (TI) quantum-dot (QD) lasers record high small signal modulation bandwidth and improved performance of 1.55μm InAs QDs on InP-based hetero-structures were reported, which underscores their application potential for high-speed optical communication networks. However, large signal modulation, which really is the fingerprint of applicability in optical communication, is much less investigated. We present a theoretical analysis of TI laser and amplifier devices by combining material realistic electronic structure calculations with a detailed description of the carrier dynamics. Based on these investigations, we can give design guidelines to optimize the modulation bandwidth and turn-on delay.
