Abstract
Reported here we studies of a plane wave femtosecond pulse propagating in a semiconductor amplifier over gain lengths. Preliminary results on the extension of the study include transverse spatial effects necessary to model realistic waveguiding and broad area amplifier structures will also be discussed. For a plane wave pulse, it is concluded that after initial linear amplification and saturation, the pulse undergoes strong intensity and spectral deformation before settling into a strongly compressed intense superluminal pulse undergoing adiabatic following (AF) with off-resonant noninverted states, well above the chemical potential.
