✦ Synopsis
By investigating the heat flow mechanism in a semiconductor laser diode, we demonstrate a comprehensive technique for optical device thermal parameters extraction to be used in the prediction of the laser performance This accurate and precise heat exchange model takes into account the relevant heat exchange mechanism and mechanical considerations of the laser diode mounting. We measured the thermal response of a semiconductor laser diode attach to a substrate, deriving from those the device thermal parameters such as heat capacity and thermal conductance for the device and subtract. From the estimated values a prediction of the real laser temperature response is obtained directly from the measurements realized in the substrate.
