Abstract
Experiments on codirectional nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a 1.52 mu m travelling-wave semiconductor laser amplifier are presented. Estimations for the spontaneous carrier lifetime and linewidth enhancement factor are derived from comparison between experimental and calculated results from theory based on signal-induced carrier-density modulation.
