Notes:
Time jitter, which affects the switch-on instant of pulse modulated semiconductor lasers, has recently been shown to be lower in Fabry–Perot than in distributed feedback lasers. In this letter starting from the rate equations for the field and the number of excited carriers in multimode lasers, and considering the stochastic nature of spontaneous emissions, we are able to find an expression for time jitter which explains the above-mentioned experimental results.
