摘要
An analytical theory is developed for the thermal properties of a large optical cavity semiconductor laser high above threshold. The performance of symmetric and asymmetric waveguide structures is analyzed and compared. Narrow asymmetric waveguides are predicted to be advantageous from the thermal point of view.
