In ACTESEA, modifications of the probe gain in the vicinity of the frequency of a narrowband cw beam injected into the Fabry-Perot peak of a VCSEL just above threshold are detected as changes in the broad lasing spectral profile. As shown in the figure, the emission is enhanced below the injection frequency and suppressed above.
