Single longitudinal mode operation of diode lasers

Applied Physics Letters, 1977
We report single longitudinal mode operation of conventional double-heterostructure GaAs/GaAlAs diode lasers achieved by heavy p-type doping of the active region. At 77 °K a broad-area device pumped with a rectangular current pulse exhibited single longitudinal mode operation up to 2.8 times threshold, which was the limit of the pulser.

Single longitudinal mode operation of an XeCl laser

Applied Physics Letters, 1984
Single longitudinal mode output from a directly tuned, long pulse, magnetically switched XeCl laser is reported for the first time. Mode control was achieved using spatial aperatures and intracavity etalons. The narrow bandwidth laser output was diffraction limited with an optical pulse width of 30 ns, which would yield a transform limited bandwidth of

Widely tunable single-longitudinal-mode pulsed dye laser

Optics Letters, 1989
We have developed a simple cavity-length-stabilization method appropriate for single-longitudinal-mode pulsed lasers that use grazing-incidence gratings. Our technique relies on the detection of aminute (

Efficient single-longitudinal-mode Nd:YAG laser

IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics, 1972
A continuous TEM 00 power of more than \frac{1}{2} W has been obtained from a single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) Nd:YAG laser pumped with a 1-kW tungsten-iodine lamp. Spatial hole burning, the cause of multilongitudinal mode (MLM) oscillation, was eliminated by placing the rod between two quarter-wave plates.

Single-longitudinal-mode, tunable, pulsed Ti:sapphire laser oscillator

Optics Letters, 1989
A 2.0-mJ/pulse, 2-nsec, single-longitudinal-mode Ti:sapphire laser oscillator has been demonstrated in a compact grazing-incidence cavity configuration similar to a Littman arrangement. The oscillator's output beam quality is TEM(00), making it attractive for doubling and mixing applications.

Single longitudinal mode oscillation from a multi-interferometric cavity

Applied Optics, 2009
A method to generate stable single longitudinal mode (SLM) radiation from a multi-interferometric cavity configuration that can be considered as the combination of one Michelson cavity and two Fox-Smith cavities is presented. A numerical model of the interferometric cavity is investigated to optimize the laser for mode selection, and experimental ...

High-efficiency single-longitudinal-mode laser

OSA Annual Meeting, 1993
This is a new type laser composed by two resonators. It conquers the contradiction between the efficiency and the quality of single longitudinal mode (SLM), and there is no strict matching requirement for resonator and modes of injection locking.

Tunable, Single-Longitudinal Mode 2 μm VECSEL

Frontiers in Optics + Laser Science APS/DLS, 2019
A tunable, 2 μm, narrow linewidth vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser (VECSEL) is demonstrated. Single-longitudinal mode operation with sub-MHz linewidth is achieved over a tuning range of 80 nm.

Partition fluctuations in nearly single-longitudinal-mode lasers

Journal of Lightwave Technology, 1984
A simple model of mode partition noise is developed, which is valid for semiconductor lasers operating CW, having a single active region and oscillating primarily in one dominant mode. It is shown that the intensity fluctuations in the nonlasing modes occur with characteristic times of a few nanoseconds and have exponential probability distributions ...

III Single-Longitudinal-Mode Semiconductor Lasers

1988
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the single-longitudinal-mode (SLM) semiconductor lasers. The use of single-mode fibers has eliminated the problem of modal noise. The chapter reviews the recent progress in the field of SLM semiconductor lasers. The physics of semiconductor lasers is discussed and the material system and the structure commonly
