Temperature Dependence of the Delay in Pulse Radiation of an Injection Laser

A theoretical analysis of the temperature dependence of the delay in stimulated radiation of an injection laser is made with allowance for the temperature dependence of the lifetime of the current carriers and the threshold current at different excitation levels. In admissible regimes of excitation the dependence of the delay on the temperature is investigated experimentally. The experimental results agree satisfactorily with those predicted. A method of stabilization of radiation delay in an injection laser based on priority discrimination of pulse signals is described, and its efficiency is investigated experimentally.
