(a) The optical gain coefficient of a semiconductor laser with 150 μm cavity length is shown in Fig 1. The loss coefficient and the refractive index of the semiconductor laser are 21.6 cm" and 3.5 respectively. Find (i)The minimum gain coefficient required for lasing (ii) The frequency separation between the longitudinal modes of the laser (iii) The number of longitudinal modes emitted (b) This laser is required to produce a single mode output at a wavelength of 1.32 unm If...
2-157 A long electrical resistance wire of radius r.-0.25 cm has a thermal conductivity kwire-15 W/m-K. Heat is generated uniformly in the wire as a result of resistance heating at a constant rate of 0.5 W/cm3. The wire is covered with polyethylene insulation with a thickness of 0.25 cm and thermal conductivity of ks 0.4 W/m K. The outer surface of the insulation is subjected to free convection in air at 20°C and a convection heat transfer coefficient of 2...
