A Fabry–Perot laser diode has an internal loss coefficient is 40dB.cm-1 , longitudinal mode spacing is 88GHz and mirror reflectivity, R1 = R2 = 0.5. Compute the length of the cavity and the photon lifetime. Also, compute the minimum required gain to sustain laser oscillations. Assume that the velocity of light in the active region is 9.09 × 107 m/s.

Consider a Fabry–Perot semiconductor laser diode operating at 1550 nm. The active region is a III–V quaternary semiconductor alloy of InGaAsP (but quite close to being InGaAs). The LD has a cavity length of 250 μm. The refractive index of InGaAsP is approximately 3.60 and dn/dT = 2.5 * 10^-4 K^-1, the linear thermal expansion coefficient is 5.6 * 10^-6 K^-1. The bandgap of InGaAs follows the Varshi equation Eg = Ego - AT^2>(B + T) with Ego = 0.850...

1. Baseballs vary somewhat in their rebounding coefficient. A baseball that has a large rebound coefficient will travel further when the same force is applied to it than a ball with a smaller coefficient. To achieve a game in which each batter has an equal opportunity to hit a home run, the balls should have nearly the same rebound coefficient. A standard test has been developed to measure the rebound coefficient of baseballs. A purchaser of large quantities of baseballs...
