Summary :

The spontaneous emission factor in the rate equation of the injection laser is derived with help of the classical electromagnetic theory. The spontaneous emission is treated as the radiations from dipoles located in the active region. The value of the spontaneous emission factor given theoretically is in good agreement with the measured results. The magnitude of the spontaneous emission factor is inversely proportional to the volume of the active region and the spectral width of the spontaneous emission, and is proportional to the energy confinement factor and the fourth power of the wavelength. The possibility of the suppression of the relaxation oscillation by reducing the volume of the active region is predicted theoretically.
