Abstract
Spectral-hole burning1 and hot carriers2 are the physical process generally thought to be responsible for gain nonlinearity in semiconductor laser. The time constant associated with hot carriers has been identified to be -0.6 ps in the long-wavelength semiconductor laser2 while the time constant associated with spectral hole burning is assumed to be < 0.3 ps.
