Abstract
The large‐signal modulation response of a 1.3 μm InGaAsP four‐well laser of the Fabry–Perot type is investigated when the input signal is either a sinusoidal or a square wave. The time evolution of the photon density is obtained by the numerical solution of the rate equations for several amplitude and frequency values of the input signal. The output photon density is very similar for the two input signal types, except at low frequencies. The normalized resonance frequency is seen to behave better when the input signal is sinusoidal and nonlinear gain saturation effects take place. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

This study concerns InGaAsP laser diodes with ptype substrates and with leak currents that can be ignored at room temperature. We investigate the radiative recombination coefficient and the Auger recombination coefficient based on the delay time of laser oscillation from the pulse current applied to
We have measured the change in threshold current and lasing photon energy as a function of pressure in 1.3 mm semiconductor quantum well lasers. We observe a decrease in threshold current with increasing pressure indicative of an Auger recombination process which decreases as the band gap increases.
