Abstract
The presence of defects inside the cavity of a semiconductor laser can have a very strong influence on the emission spectrum. By carefully positioning a limited number of defects, it would be possible to achieve quasi-single longitudinal-mode operation. This paper shows that by a straightforward Fourier analysis of a sub-threshold laser spectrum one can extract the complex reflectivities of an internal scatterer.
