Risø National Laboratory Fundamental condition for laser action In general, the laser system needs mode suppression from the gratings and a large nonlinear susceptibility. This condition leads to the condition that the angle must be chosen according to: E0 1+ ⎛ nλ ⎞ 1 Is 2arcsin ⎜ θ 2L ⎟ < < ⎝ ⎠ k Dτ s 2 Paul Michael Petersen, Laser Diodes with External Feedback (tutorial)

Risø National Laboratory Nonlinear gratings and mode suppression (Numerical example) Mode suppression Inserting L=1 mm, n=3.4, •=810 nm for GaAlAs we obtain crit = 4.2 Nonlinear gratings For GaAlAs the parameters are D a =13cm 2 /s and R =1 ns and consequently we obtain at 810 nm ½ = 6.5 Mode suppression and strong gratings are obtained when 4.2 < < 6.5° Paul Michael Petersen, Laser Diodes with External Feedback (tutorial)
