The transmission and reflection characteristics of distributed feedback (DFB) laser amplifiers are determined. Near the oscillation threshold of a DFB mode a relation is found between gain and bandwidth which can be used to obtain an expression for an intrinsic noise linewidth that is analogous to that found by Schawlow and Townes.
