Circuit model of a multiple-quantum-well diode.
A circuit model for a multiple-quantum-well p-i-n diode that can be used in conjunction with circuit simulation programs to simulate the performance of a variety of self-electro-optic-effect devices (SEED's) and the systems that they can be used in is described The novel aspect of the model is that it permits circuits with both optical and electrical connections between quantum-well diodes to be analyzed. A photonic ring counter that uses symmetric SEED's is given as an example, and a good agreement is shown between the model and the experiment.
