Summary :

In this paper, an analysis was made on the variation of oscillating mode numbers of a semiconductor laser at high speed pulse modulation by solving multi-mode rate equations which relate a quasi-Fermi level to photon numbers. The laser gain was assumed to be homogeneous and has a dependency of (), where is ωEg (relative photon energy). Single mode oscillation conditions for short pulse modulation were obtained associated with following two cases. A) One is the criterion how wide the mode separation must be made as of a short cavity laser and of an integrated twin-guide (ITG) laser. B) The other is the condition how large we must give an excess loss to the unwanted modes such as of the ITG laser, of a distributed feedback (DFB) laser, and of a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) laser.
