Which risk increases in a semiconductor laser when pumping current exceeds threshold?

💡 Explanation

Exceeding the threshold causes multiple longitudinal modes to oscillate, because spatial hole burning depletes population inversion nonuniformly. Therefore, multimode operation increases, rather than single-mode as intended for stable, narrow-linewidth lasing; the primary cause is spatial hole burning.
