Semiconductor laser quantum noise limits

Abstract

The quantum mechanical limits to the fundamental noise performance of semiconductor lasers are reviewed. Recent advances in pushing the laser noise below theses limits are then discussed with emphasis on pump suppression, electronic feedback, and correlation techniques such as optical feedback. It is found that narrow-linewidth semiconductor lasers with sub-shot- noise photon statistics are within the reach of current technology.
