Strong optical injection-locked semiconductor lasers demonstrating > 100-GHz resonance frequencies and 80-GHz intrinsic bandwidths.
By using strong optical injection locking, we report resonance frequency enhancement in excess of 100 GHz in semiconductor lasers. We demonstrate this enhancement in both distributed feedback (DFB) lasers and vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs), showing the broad applicability of the technique and that the coupling Q is the figure-of-merit for resonance frequency enhancement. We ha...
متن کاملScaling of resonance frequency for strong injection-locked lasers.
It has been shown that strong optical injection locking can significantly enhance the resonance frequency of semiconductor lasers. In this Letter, we describe the trade-off between the maximum resonance frequency enhancement and the quality factor (Q) of the lossless laser cavity and show that the time-bandwidth product (product of photon lifetime and maximum resonance frequency) is equal to on...
متن کاملMode - locked fiber ring lasers with semiconductor optical amplifiers for repetition rates between 10 and 160 GHz
This thesis is on the development of high-speed pulsed lasers at wavelengths around 1.55 m for applications in the fiber optic communications field. The realization of future optical transmission systems and signal processing circuits will require such optical pulse sources, capable of producing picosecond pulses with a low timing jitter at repetition rates of tens or even hundreds of Gigahertz...
متن کامل2-ps, 10-GHz mode-locked laser with semiconductor optical amp, ring cavity, and sinusoidally modulated light injection
In new optical pulse generator using delayedinterference-signal-wavelength-converter (DISC)-type all-optical gate, we injected sinusoidally modulated light to ring cavity. With this way, externally modulated laser oscillation and mode-locked pulse laser oscillation occurred. These generated pulse’s widths and repetition frequencies are 27 ps, 10.5 GHz and 2.1 ps, 10.5 GHz, respectively. Keyword...
متن کاملOptical computing by injection-locked lasers
A programmable optical computer has remained an elusive concept. To construct a practical computing primitive equivalent to an electronic Boolean logic, one should find a nonlinear phenomenon that overcomes weaknesses present in many optical processing schemes. Ideally, the nonlinearity should provide a functionally complete set of logic operations, enable ultrafast all-optical programmability,...
