CORRELATION-FUNCTION AND TIME-DEPENDENT MOMENTS OF THE INTENSITY FOR GAIN-NOISE MODEL OF A SINGLE-MODE LASER WITH EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION CORRELATION NOISE

The gain-noise model of a single-mode laser driven by correlated addit ive and multiplicative white noises is investigated theoretically. The analytical expressions of the time-dependent moments and correlation function of the laser intensity are derived by means of linear approxi mation method. Some novel phenomena are found. In certain cases, inste ad of monotonic evolution, the evolution curves of the intensity corre lation function versus time exhibit the negative minimum value, wherea s a peak for the evolution of the normalised variance of the laser int ensity with time emerges.
