Abstract

This is the first reported analysis, from first principles the physical mechanisms responsible for the reduction of the α-parameter in strained layer lasers as a result of using quantum well structures. α-values of approx.2 in 1% compressively strained lasers operating d.c. and under modulation conditions were measured. It will be determined from the results obtained whether the use of strain result to an apparent reduction of α-values under cw and dynamic conditions.
