Low threshold current and widely tunable external cavity lasers with chirped multilayer InAs/InGaAs/GaAs quantum-dot structure.
Low threshold and widely tunable InAs/GaAs quantum-dot lasers are implemented with grating-coupled external-cavity arrangement. Throughout the tuning range of 130 nm, from 1160 to 1290 nm, the threshold current density is not more than 0.9 kA/cm2 and no noticeable threshold jump is observed. For a shorter-cavity device, the injection current is kept at a record low value of 90 mA but the tuning...
متن کاملBroadly tunable high-power InAs/GaAs quantum-dot external cavity diode lasers.
A record broadly tunable high-power external cavity InAs/GaAs quantum-dot diode laser with a tuning range of 202 nm (1122 nm-1324 nm) is demonstrated. A maximum output power of 480 mW and a side-mode suppression ratio greater than 45 dB are achieved in the central part of the tuning range. We exploit a number of strategies for enhancing the tuning range of external cavity quantum-dot lasers. Di...
متن کاملProgress in Rapidly-Tunable External Cavity Quantum Cascade Lasers with a Frequency-Shifted Feedback
The recent demonstration of external cavity quantum cascade lasers with optical feedback, controlled by an acousto-optic modulator, paves the way to ruggedized infrared laser systems with the capability of tuning the emission wavelength on a microsecond scale. Such systems are of great importance for various critical applications requiring ultra-rapid wavelength tuning, including combustion and...
متن کاملDynamic characteristics of long-wavelength quantum dot vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers with light injection.
This investigation experimentally demonstrates the dynamic characteristics of quantum dot vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (QD VCSEL) without and with light injection. The QD VCSEL is fully doped structure on GaAs substrate and operates in the 1.3 mum optical communication wavelength. The eye diagram, frequency response, and intermodulation distortion are presented. We also demonstrate t...
متن کاملUltra-low threshold current density quantum dot lasers using the dots-in-a-well (DWELL) structure
Quantum dots laser diodes using the dots-in-a-well (DWELL) structure (InAs dots in an InGaAs quantum wells) have exhibited significant recent progress. With a single InAs dot layer in Inoi5Gao.8sAs quantum well, threshold current densities are as low as 26 A cm2 at 1 .25 xm. Quantum dot laser threshold current densities are now lower than any other reported semiconductor laser. In this work, th...
