Generation of subpicosecond high-power optical pulses from a hybrid mode-locked semiconductor laser.

چکیده
Ultrashort optical pulses 0.46 psec in duration with over 70 W of peak power are generated from an all-semiconductor laser-diode system. These results represent to our knowledge both the shortest and most-intense optical pulses generated from an all-semiconductor laser system.

Picosecond pulses from wavelength-swept continuous-wave Fourier domain mode-locked lasers.
Ultrafast lasers have a crucial function in many fields of science; however, up to now, high-energy pulses directly from compact, efficient and low-power semiconductor lasers are not available. Therefore, we introduce a new approach based on temporal compression of the continuous-wave, wavelength-swept output of Fourier domain mode-locked lasers, where a narrowband optical filter is tuned synch...
متن کاملGeneration of subpicosecond pulses from a continuous-wave mode-locked Nd:YAG laser using a two-stage optical compression technique.
By using a two-stage optical-fiber grating pair pulse-compression technique, 1.06-microm pulses as short as 0.7 psec have been obtained from an actively mode-locked cw Nd:YAG laser. This represents an overall pulse-compression ratio of 113.
متن کاملHigh-power high-repetition-rate subpicosecond monolithic Yb:KGW laser with self-mode locking.
We report on a high-power subpicosecond monolithic self-mode-locked Yb:KGW laser with the pulse repetition rate up to several tens of gigahertz. Experimental results reveal that not only the repetition rate but also the pulse width depend on the length of the laser crystal. Using a coated Yb:KGW crystal with a length of 3.36 mm, mode-locked pulses with pulse duration of 850 fs at the repetition...

High repetition rate (10-50GHz) semiconductor mode-locked lasers (MLL) provide excellent performance in terms of stable output and high optical power and they are commonly investigated for optical frequency comb generation and optical code division multiple access (O-CDMA) networks [1, 2]. However, there have been few studies of monolithically integrated low frequency (< 2-GHz) semiconductor ML...
متن کاملHybrid Mode Locked Fiber Ring Laser
Mode locked pulse generation has been reported using both active and passive mode locking schemes. Active mode locking technique has been proven to be an effective way to generate high-repetition-rate pulses by incorporating a modulator inside the laser cavity. Compared to actively mode locked lasers, passively mode locked lasers can generate pulse train at ultrashort pulse width but with relat...
