A Novel Theoretical Procedure to Determine Absorption and Gain Coefficients in a Symmetric Single Step-Index Quantum Well Laser

If the indices nII, nI,III of the regions, the thickness 2a of the active region (AR) and the wavelength l for a single symmetric step-index quantum well laser (SSSIQWL) are given, the normalized propagation constant (NPC) a is obtained. In this novel method, absorption and gain coefficients for the SSSIQWL have been obtained in terms of the NPCs a in the even and odd fields, directly.
