In case anyone's following this (and I opened it from alt.lasers to two electronics newsgroups), I'm still after laser diode spice models...
And I found this:
I'm still very new to spice, so if anyone is feeling very helpful and can write a conversion of this I can use in LTspice, please do.
Also, a quote of my earlier posts so people in the electronics groups can see them: "I've seen a few lines specifying diode models last night and gathered some for general use, and I'll look into what the parameters mean, so even a few known ones in spice format will help me, even without a full model. But I do want to know what parameters are important to laser diodes, and what values they ought to have for a DVD writer diode. I suspect they will be similar for most if not all DVD diodes.." And: "Does anyone have access to the Journal of Lightwave Technology vol.15, no.4, april 1997, page 717? I read that there's a spice model there, but I have no access to this."
In short, I want electrical models of DVD writer type diodes. I don't need extreme accuracy, or the optical details, (didn't think spice went there anyway). They just have to be realistic electrically, and I'd like some simple direct guidance on what parameters I need to change in an LTspice model of a diode, as that's the context I'm using.
