Abstract
A method of calculating the gain and the output signal based on the beam pr opagation method and rate equations is presented. It employs the complex at omic susceptibility in the paraxial wave equation to calculate light propag ation in integrated optics devices. As an example, an erbium-doped waveguid e planar splitter is analyzed. (C) 2000 society of Photo-Optical Instrument ation Engineers. [S0091-3286(00)02502-2].
