  • Abstract
    We have measured the gain coefficient of 1.3 ¿m InGaAsP as a function of injected current density by measuring the spectra of amplified spontaneous emission as a function of excited length, using a laser device in which the p contact was divided into eight segments that can be pumped independently. We found a linear behaviour of the gain peak against injected current density up to gain values of 180 cm¿1.
