Abstract
Experiments reveal that the physical characteristics related to absorptive bistability, such as lasing threshold, hysteresis width, and carrier redistribution, are greatly altered when the absorber position is changed from the middle section to one of the end-facet sections in a three-section laser diode.Keywords
