Investigation of spectrally broad gain multiple-width quantum well material for colliding pulse mode-locked operation [PDF]
The first colliding pulse mode-locked operation of devices fabricated from broad gain spectrum multiple-width quantum well material is reported. Using multiple-width quantum wells in the active region of the InGaAs/InAlGaAs material system, 35% broader ...

Short pulse generation with 40 GHz passively-mode locked Q-dashed Fabry-Pérot laser [PDF]
Generation of sub-picosecond pulses by a DC-biased passively mode-locked Fabry-Perot laser is demonstrated. By using a tunable band-pass filter, it is observed that the width of the generated pulses decreases in direct proportion to the optical modes ...
