Abstract :
A novel wavelength-dependent optical modulation technique capable of explicitly delineating the effects of quantum capture, carrier diffusion, and other intrinsic effects in quantum-well laser dynamics is described. Results for a compressively strained multiple-quantum-well laser are presented.<>
