Abstract :
A general theory of semiconductor lasers is presented in which the static and dynamic properties are expressed in terms of the effective left and right reflectivities at a given reference plane in the laser. The theory applies to Fabry-Perot and DFB solitary lasers and to laser configurations with strong optical feedback or strong light injection.
