SPIKES IN THE LIGHT OUTPUT OF ROOMhyphen;TEMPERATURE GaAs JUNCTION LASERS

摘要

A regular spiking pattern has been observed in the light output of GaAs injection lasers with a stripe geometry contact. Computer solutions to the rate equations involving the photon density and the inverted population are compared and found to be in good agreement with the experimental results. The rate equations are based on the assumption that a spatially inhomogeneous inversion exists along the resonator length.
