چکیده
High-power 2.3m In(Al)GaAsSb–GaSb type-I double quantum-well diode laser arrays were fabricated and characterized. Linear laser arrays with 19 100m-wide elements on a 1-cm-long bar generated 10 W in continuous-wave (CW) mode and 18.5 W in quasi-CW mode (30 s/300 Hz) at a heatsink temperature of 18 C. Array power conversion efficiency peaked at 30 A and was about 9%. Device internal efficiency was about 50%. Individual laser differential gain with respect to current was about twice as high as in InP-based laser heterostructures, demonstrating the potential of GaSb-based material system for high-power CW room-temperature laser diode arrays.

GaSb and InP-based VCSELs at 2.3 μm emission wavelength for tuneable diode laser spectroscopy of carbon monoxide
We present long-wavelength buried tunnel junction (BTJ) VCSELs for emission wavelengths around 2.3 μm. Two different device concepts have been realized utilizing either InPor GaSb-based materials. The InP-VCSELs are based on a BTJ-design which has been well-proven for wavelengths up to 2 μm in recent years. To extend this range up to emission wavelengths around 2.3 μm, the main focus is set on ...

A stable 3-microm-wavelength, GaSb-based diode operated at room temperature has been investigated as a potential laser source for cryogenic target layering at the Omega Laser Facility for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments. More than 50 mW of output power has been achieved at 14 degrees C with high spectral and output-power stability.

We have investigated passive mode-locking of Tm,Ho:YAG lasers with GaInAs- and GaSb-based semiconductor saturable absorber mirrors (SESAMs). With a GaInAs-based SESAM, stable dual-wavelength mode-locking operation was achieved at 2091 nm and 2097 nm, generating pulses with duration of 56.9 ps and a maximum output power of 285 mW. By using the GaSb-based SESAMs, we could generate mode-locked pul...

متن کاملAnalysis of New Laser Warning Technologies to Propose a New Optical Subsystem
In this paper, after a brief overview on laser warning system (LWS), a new structure for an optical array that is used in its optical subsystem is introduced. According to the laser threats’ wavelengths (0.5 – 1.6 µm) and our desirable field of view (FOV), we used 6 lenses for gathering the incident radiation and then optimized the optical array. Lenses’ radius, their se...
