Self-injected semiconductor distributed feedback lasers for frequency chirp stabilization.
It is well known that semiconductor distributed feedback lasers (DFB) are key devices for optical communications. However direct modulation applications are limited by the frequency chirp induced by current modulation. We demonstrate that a proper external control laser operation leads to chirp-to-power ratio (CPR) stabilization over a wide range of modulation frequencies as compared to the fre...
متن کاملFrequency stabilization of semiconductor lasers by resonant optical feedback.
With simple optical geometries a separate resonant Fabry-Perot cavity can serve as an optical feedback element that forces a semiconductor laser automatically to lock its frequency optically to the cavity resonance. This method is used to stabilize laser frequencies and reduce linewidths by a factor of 1000 from 20 MHz to approximately 20 kHz.
متن کاملSelf-induced frequency scanning and distributed Bragg reflection in semiconductor lasers with phase-conjugate feedback.
A GaAlAs semiconductor laser with feedback from a barium titanate photorefractive ring passive phase-conjugate mirror can be made to perform repeating or nonrepeating frequency scans over a 10-nm range toward either the blue or the red. The direction of scanning and whether the scans repeat may be controlled by adjusting the overlap of the interaction beams in the crystal. This overlap region m...
متن کاملExperimental demonstration of distributed feedback semiconductor lasers based on reconstruction-equivalent-chirp technology.
In this paper we report, to the best of our knowledge, the first experimental realization of distributed feedback (DFB) semiconductor lasers based on reconstruction-equivalent-chirp (REC) technology. Lasers with different lasing wavelengths are achieved simultaneously on one chip, which shows a potential for the REC technology in combination with the photonic integrated circuits (PIC) technolog...
متن کاملStabilization of feedback-induced instabilities in semiconductor lasers
We present extensive studies on feedback-induced instabilities in semiconductor lasers (SLs) subject to delayed optical feedback. We demonstrate that a sufficient reduction of the linewidth enhancement factor α changes the dynamical structure of the system such that permanent emission in a stable emission state is achieved. This behaviour can be well understood on the basis of the Lang–Kobayash...
