The resonator is an infinite chain of active circular cylindrical quantum wires standing in tree space. Characteristic equations for the frequencies and associated linear thresholds of lasing are derived. These quantities are considered as eigenvalues of specific electromagnetic-field problem with "active" imaginary part of the cylinder material's refractive index - Lasing Eigenvalue Problem (LEP). ©2008 IEEE.EnglishEigenproblemFloquet seriesLaserMicrocavityQuantum wireThresholdEigenvalues and eigenfunctionsElectromagnetismNanostructuresNanowiresOptical materialsOptical propertiesQuantum electronicsRefractive indexResonatorsSemiconductor quantum wiresWireCharacteristic equationsEigenvaluesImaginary partsInternational conferencesLaserLasing eigenvalue problemLasing modesMicrocavityQuantum wireQuantum wiresThresholdTransparent optical networksTree spaceLinear equationsConference Paper10.1109/ICTON.2008.4598781
