Spice Analysis for the DC Behavior of the Light Amplifying Optical Switch (LAOS)

A heterojunction phototransistor (HPT) is integrated in series with a light-emitting diode to form an optoelectronic device called Light Amplifying Optical Switch. This device has been shown to switch from low current region to high current region at a voltage called breakover voltage. This switchin...
