Abstract
A fundamental relation between the direct modulation bandwidth of an injection laser and the various laser parameters is as follows: where P0 is the optical power density at the active region, A is the differential gain constant and τp is the photon lifetime. It is obvious that the bandwidth can be increased by increasing Po.
