Abstract :
A time-domain analysis of single-contact multi-spatial-mode mode-locking semiconductor lasers is presented with simplified treatments of material gain that captures the picoseconds laser dynamics. The equivalent saturable absorption is shown resulting from the active multi-spatial-mode coupling.
