Polarization-mode hopping in single-mode vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers: Theory and experiment - art. no. 013813

摘要

In this paper, we present a theoretical and experimental analysis of stochastic effects observed in polarization switching vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers. We make a thorough comparison between theoretical predictions and experiments, comparing measured quasipotentials and dwell times. The correspondence between our theoretical model based on stochastic intensity rate equations and the experiments is found to be very good. [References: 52]
