  • Abstract
    We have derived analytical expressions for threshold current reduction, output polarization, the gain anisotropy parameter and the spin laser frequency response taking into account the diffusion of spin polarized carriers from the ferromagnetic contact to the active region and spin-coupled laser rate equations. The validity of the derivations is endorsed by excellent agreement of these parameters from measurements done on spin-VCSELs.
