Abstract

Interactions of sidemodes in a semiconductor gain medium in the presence of an oscillating mode are studied both for beat frequencies comparable to interband relaxation rates as well as those comparable to intraband relaxation rates. The former applies to the complete many-body theory, provided the strong mode Rabi frequency is small compared to the intraband relaxation rates. Population pulsations play an important role in both cases, with spectral hole burning playing an equally important role for the large beat frequency case.
