Abstract

The linewidth enhancement factor a is one of fundamental parameters of semiconductor lasers.1 Many methods for measuring the a-value have already been proposed and tested.2 The CHP (Chirp-Halfwidth Product) method3 is known as the method for measuring the a-value under the large- signal modulation condition. This method utilizing the time-bandwidth product of pulse is simple to carry out experiment, but there is a fear of occurrence of an over- or under-estimation on evaluated a-values due to the Gaussian pulse shape assumption included and so-called ‘rabbit ears’ seen in the spectrum.3
