A compact nine-channel multiwavelength laser

Compact mid-infrared Cr:ZnSe channel waveguide laser

Multiwavelength Modelocked Semiconductor Diode Laser

Compact Cr:ZnS channel waveguide laser operating at 2,333 nm.

A compact mid-infrared channel waveguide laser is demonstrated in Cr:ZnS with a view to power scaling chromium laser technology utilizing the thermo-mechanical advantages of Cr:ZnS over alternative transition metal doped II-VI semiconductor laser materials. The laser provided a maximum power of 101 mW of CW output at 2333 nm limited only by the available pump power. A maximum slope efficiency o...

External cavity multiwavelength superbroadband diode laser

Multiwavelength semiconductor laser source for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) applications based on a novel dispersive cavity is described. Multiline lasing on the basis of a single-diode laser chip and multi-stripe diode laser is analyzed theoretically and demonstrated experimentally. Simultaneous lasing across 80% of the FWHM of the luminescence bandwidth of the AlGaAs active m...

Design of a Multiwavelength Network with Dynamic Channel Sharing

In this paper, we design and analyze a multiwavelength network with dynamic channel sharing. Traffic in the network is categorized into a real-time and a nonreal-time classes. The network blocking performance with and without channel sharing is analyzed and compared. Results show that the proposed dynamic channel sharing protocol can substantially improve the network performance without increas...
