- Abstract
Generation of a difference-frequency wave by two electromagnetic waves propagating in a heterolaser is analyzed theoretically. Calculations are carried out for InGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures of design optimized to attain maximum lasing power. It is shown that phase matching between the primary waves and the difference-frequency wave may persist over a distance of ∼1 mm, comparable to the cavity length (2–3 mm), and the conversion coefficient can be as large as several percent.
