A CW Gunn Diode Switching Element
نویسندگان
چکیده
A current controlled bistable switching element using a CW Gunn diode is reported. With modest circuits switching rates of the order of 10 MHz have been obtained. Switching is initiated by current pulses of short duration (5 10 ns). Rise times of the order of several nanoseconds could be obtained. The apparent mechanism which allows the bistable operation of the Gunn diode is the reduction in the mobility of the GaAs active layer due to

Eye safe laser operation at 1645.55 nm (6077 cm) of resonantly pumped Er:YAG laser systems is demonstrated in cw and Q-switched operation. High brightness diode laser modules emitting at 1532 nm have been utilized as pump sources providing an absorption efficiency of up to 96%. This leads to an overall efficiency of the Er:YAG laser of 30%. For cw operation, 9 W output power is possible at pump...
