  • Abstract
    Noise phenomena in semiconductor lasers have been extensively studied from an experimental point of view because of their importance in designing optical communication systems. Recently, a semiclassical theory of laser noise has been presented [1]. In this paper, following a different and simpler approach, we obtain analytical expressions for the intensity and phase noise power spectra which agree with experimental results.
