Which risk increases when a semiconductor laser forward current decreases?

💡 Explanation

Spontaneous emission dominates lasing because decreased current reduces the electron-hole recombination rate; therefore, stimulated emission is less likely to be triggered, and spontaneous emission dominates, rather than laser action occurring, at design efficiency.
