  • Abstract
    We hypothesize that the longitudinal mode structure of diode lasers is greatly influenced by the axial diffusion of injected carriers. Thus several longitudinal modes can coexist in lasers which utilize both injected electrons and slowly diffusing injected holes, whereas lasers which only use injected electrons should operate in a single longitudinal mode.
