Abstract

A semiconductor laser diode in a photon cavity containing a mirror whose optical bandwidth is less than the classical cavity mode spacing can have multiple lasing states at the same bias current. The physics determining the behavior of this nonlinear multistate device is self-consistency between photon number, carrier number, and refractive index.
