چکیده

We show that a novel material InNAsP grown on InP is superior for long-wavelength microdisk lasers (and so expected for edge-emitting lasers) because of its larger conduction band offset from the addition of a small amount of nitrogen (0.5%–1%). The maximum temperature of operation for an InNAsP–GaInAsP microdisk laser is 70 C, which is about 120 C higher than that of a similar laser fabricated from GaInAs–GaInAsP. The characteristic temperature To of the former is 97 K, also higher than that of the latter.

Treatment of lentigines by a novel high power diode laser at 755 nm: a case report

The use of high-power diode laser with a wavelength of 755 nm is an effective and safe method for the correction and partial and/or total elimination of pigmented lesions, specifically solar lentigines. This wavelength has yet not been used in diode lasers to treat solar lentigines. Side effects are the usual ones, including darkening and scab formation. Our patient was a 40-year-old woman of C...

Wavelength Selectable Solid-State Raman lasers in the Visible and Ultraviolet Ranges

Solid-state Raman lasers are known as important sources at normally difficult to access wavelengths, and our recent studies have shown that they also form the basis of a class of wavelength selectable lasers. This paper summarizes our recent studies in wavelength selectable Raman lasers in the visible (532-650 nm) and ultraviolet (266-321 nm).

Hot electrons and curves of constant gain in long wavelength quantum well lasers.

In long wavelength quantum well lasers the effective electron temperature (T(e)) is often a strong function of the pump current and hence the T(e) correlates with the carrier concentration n in the active region. On the other hand, the material gain g in the active layer depends on both variables, g=g(n,T(e) ). We discuss a convenient way of analyzing this situation, based on considering the co...

Mechanism for enhanced wavelength tuning in gain-levered InP quantum dot lasers

Peak gain wavelength tuning via the gain-lever effect is demonstrated in segmented contact InP quantum dot Fabry–Perot lasers. A tuning range of 6.5 ± 0.1 nm was recorded in the lasing spectra of a 1.9 mm long broad area device operating at 22°C. The authors clarify the nature of the tuning mechanism and identify the critical material and device parameters that determine the limits of the wavel...

Wafer bonded 1.55 mm vertical-cavity lasers with continuous-wave operation up to 105°C

Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers ~VCSELs! emitting in the 1.55 mm wavelength region are attractive sources for optical networks. Advantages of VCSELs include low power consumption, efficient fiber coupling, and high volume, low cost manufacturing. Transmission at 1.55 mm allows for long distance transmission over optical fiber with low attenuation and dispersion. The main limitation to r...
