Pk. Pepeljugoski et al., PARAMETRIC DEPENDENCE OF TIMING JITTER IN GAIN-SWITCHED SEMICONDUCTOR-LASERS, Applied physics letters, 63(26), 1993, pp. 3556-3558
In this letter we derive analytic results for the timing jitter in gai
n-switched semiconductor lasers driven with electrical pulse shapes co
mmonly used in practice. The analytic results allow us to identify las
er parameters as well as electrical bias and pulse conditions which af
fect timing jitter. These results are in good agreement with experimen
tal observations.
