摘要：

The process of mode hopping between external cavity modes of a laser diode with optical feedback is described in analogy with noise driven transitions of a particle between potential valleys. The model explains why the dominant mode is the mode with lowest linewidth and not the mode with lowest carrier density. It also gives a simple analytic expression for the rate of mode hopping, which is shown to predict the results of computer simulations to a good approximation. © 1990 IEEE
