Abstract :
The spontaneous emission noise of an axially inhomogeneous laser structure is evaluated by Green functions. Explicit analytical expressions are given for the field rate equation and linewidth in the case of soft variations of the complex effective index of refraction and are applied to a gain-lever laser
