optics{ emission_spectrum{} }

Compute and output emission spectra calculated from energy-resolved densities \(n(x,E)\) and \(p(x,E)\) computed by energy_resolved_density{}. Radiative recombination rate reads \(R_\mathrm{radiative}(x,E)=C(x)\int dE_h\int dE_e\ n(x,E_e) p(x,E_h) \delta(E_e-E_h-E)\), where \(C(x)\) [\(\mathrm{cm}^3/\mathrm{s}\)] is the (material-dependent) radiative recombination parameter. “spectra” and “density” in the following refer to the integrals of \(R_\mathrm{radiative}\) over position and energy, respectively.

refractive_index (optional)

averaged-out refractive index \(n_r\) (optional, dimensionless). Refractive index used for calculating gain and absorption spectra. The absorption/gain spectra is multiplied by the factor \(1/n_r^2\). The values for the optical dielectric constant from the database are not used yet at this point.
