introduction: laser-assisted vaporization of prostate tissue by means of the potassiumtitanyl- phosphate (ktp) laser is in clinical use. alternative laser sources are available but are lacking clinical experience.the 980 nm wavelength diode laser provides good hemostasis, in addition to a more rapid ablation rate. the aim of this study is approving the capability, feasibility, and good post-ope...

results the simulation results showed that the penetration depth and temperature rise of 980 nm wavelengths were different from those of 1064 nm wavelength. it appeared that 1064 nm wavelength penetrated to deeper layers of tissue compared with 980 nm. moreover, temperature rise during 1064 nm irradiation led to temperature increase in allowable ranges. the findings proved the reason why 1064 n...

transfer matrix method (tmm) has been applied to analyze characteristics of semiconductor laser optical amplifiers. the input signal is sinusoidal modulating wave and we do not assume the modulating bias signal as well. we have shown that the distoration arises from gain modulation at low modulation frequencies, but in microwave modulation frequencies, the gain takes an average value and the re...

With a proper perturbation, even a single-mode semiconductor laser can exhibit highly complex dynamical characteristics ranging from stable, narrow-linewidth oscillation to broadband chaos. In recent years, three approaches to invoke complex nonlinear dynamical states in a single-mode semiconductor laser have been thoroughly studied: optical injection, optical feedback, and optoelectronic feedb...

Generation of short optical pulses in semiconductor lasers is of practical interest for an increasing number of applications. It is also of fundamental interest because of its tight relation with the field of semiconductor laser dynamics. After an introductory review, we compare the performances of gain-switching, Q-switching and mode-locking techniques. The comparison is illustrated by experim...

Abstract: We reveal theoretically chaos and its control in a semiconductor laser with delayed negative optoelectronic feedback. Under nonperiodic or sinusoidal period optoelectronic current, the semiconductor laser exhibits rich nonlinear dynamics. For a given coupling constant, chaos is shown in a semiconductor laser directly injected by external light. For a photoelectric delayed negative-fee...
