Background and clatter noise of the V-nut laser
Abstract
The V-nut laser examined in the present paper is an optical transmitter employing an active waveguide. Wave guiding is determined by the gain profile. This operational feature leads to a relatively wide spectral band, a high spontaneous emission rate, and a smoothing (rounding) of the laser characteristic. In the present paper, the laser background and clatter noise is analyzed.
