Quantitative estimates of the variations of refractive index and gain with carrier density in GaAs/GaAIAs semiconductor injection lasers

Quantitative estimates are made of the varia- tions of real refractive index (n ') and gain (g) with carrier density (N) in the GaAs/GaA1As d. h. laser with active-layer p-doping to 4 x 1017 cm-3 and operating at 297K. It is found that the value of Isn' should lie anywhere between -0.01 an...
