In this work, the mirrorless laser effect, the random percolation laser in 3D, is studied. The difference with conventional laser is that the random laser contains disordered structures that define the frequency and the direction in which the random laser emits the light and the emission of this laser is coherent and stable. The non linear semiclassical system of Maxwell equations is studied in 3D coupled with polarization equations and four level equations of quantum dots. Such a system is considerably non linear, it is complex, and there is no analytical solution. Therefore it is of interest generating laser field numerically with the method of Finite Differences in Time Domain (FDTD) 3D and using modern numerical packages microsoft visual studio (Visual C#). The spectrum of the optical modes located in the random percolation laser is calculated in detail.
