Abstract
In this paper, we study the effects of carrier transport and carrier c apture on the linearity of the light-current characteristics of a semi conductor laser using an analytically solvable model. We include vario us physical processes within the model and study how they affect laser linearity. The technique used shows how to integrate the photon and e lectron transport within a single model, and the conclusions reveal so me interesting aspects of semiconductor laser characteristics.
