Above-threshold laser amplifier
Physical Review Letters, 1991We have measured gain profiles by light-beating techniques for an argon-ion laser operated above threshold. The observed behavior is interpreted by developing a theory which incorporates four-wave mixing of signal and image frequencies. The gain shows the typical characteristics of a second-order phase transition.

Amplified Extended Modes in Random Lasers
Physical Review Letters, 2004We report on a new random laser phenomenon that gives rise to narrow emission modes without requiring optical cavities. Sharp emission peaks are observed experimentally over a broad range of scattering strengths and analyzed in numerical calculations.

Frequency conversion in semiconductor lasers and amplifiers
European Transactions on Telecommunications, 1994AbstractDifferent methods to obtain frequency conversion in optical systems using nonlinear effects in semiconductor devices are analyzed and discussed. In particular, some recent results obtained on the frequency conversion by gain saturation and four wave mixing (FWM) in semiconductor lasers and amplifiers are reported.

Abstract Often one wants a laser amplifier system to produce an output pulse of a specific form, e.g., time shape, energy, etc. Given any potential amplifier configuration one needs to find the proper input pulse which, when propagated through the amplifier system, results in the desired output pulse.

A laser-amplifying device is proposed which is based on the stimulated decay of excitons in a pure crystal. An estimate is made of the gain of the device. At a typical frequency the gain is found to be appreciably large, thus suggesting practical application of the laser amplifier.

A series of models is developed that describes a Ho:Tm laser, and predictions from these models are compared with experimental measurements for a variety of Ho:Tm:YLF amplifiers. Modeling is complicated by the plethora of required parameters needed to describe the dynamics of the Ho:Tm laser system versus the paucity of measured parameters.

Influence of amplified spontaneous emission on laser linewidth in a fiber amplifier
Applied Optics, 2020Spectral broadening due to amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) in a fiber amplifier is experimentally and theoretically investigated in this paper. By measuring and analyzing the variation in linewidth and noise of the fiber amplifier, the influence of ASE on laser linewidth is studied.

Experimental results are presented on the operational characteristics of GaAs laser amplifiers very closely coupled to a laser oscillator. The separation between the oscillator and the amplifier was varied from 0.2 to 2.0 microns. The amplifiers were made by lapping one end at an angle of 10 to 15 degrees.

Optics Amplification of femtosecond laser pulses requires a lasing medium or a nonlinear crystal. The chemical properties of the lasing medium or adherence to momentum conservation rules in the nonlinear crystal constrain the frequency and the bandwidth of the amplified pulses.

Amplifier/compressor fiber Raman lasers
Annual Meeting Optical Society of America, 1987When pump and Stokes pulses copropagate in a fiber Raman laser (FRL), the weaker Stokes spectrum is severely broadened through pump-induced cross-phase modulation (XPM).1 Thus, in an FRL during Raman amplification, the pulse is chirped through XPM, and then the linear anomalous dispersion of a fiber can compress the pulse.
