Résumé : Rate equations modeling self-pulsating laser diodes have been investigated numerically by various groups. In this paper, we formulate dimensionless equations, which unifies these independent studies. The low values of the decay rates of the carriers motivate analytical approximations for the domain of self-pulsation. These approximations highlight the effect of some physical processes (diffusion of the carriers, radiative recombination rate) which are important for self-pulsating diode lasers.
