Delay differential equations for mode-locked semiconductor lasers.
We propose a new model for passive mode locking that is a set of ordinary delay differential equations. We assume a ring-cavity geometry and Lorentzian spectral filtering of the pulses but do not use small gain and loss and weak saturation approximations. By means of a continuation method, we study mode-locking solutions and their stability. We find that stable mode locking can exist even when ...
متن کاملModelling colliding-pulse mode-locked semiconductor lasers
A discussion of three topics in the eld of non linear optics is presented We begin with the Colliding Pulse Mode locked CPM Quantum Well QW laser A large signal model consisting of a wave propagation equation for the electrical eld and a rate equation model for the material response is derived The wave propagation equation of the electrical eld is derived from Maxwell s equations in the slowly ...
متن کاملDelay-induced dynamics and jitter reduction of passively mode-locked semiconductor lasers subject to optical feedback
We study a passively mode-locked semiconductor ring laser subject to optical feedback from an external mirror. Using a delay differential equation model for the mode-locked laser, we are able to systematically investigate the resonance effects of the inter-spike interval time of the laser and the roundtrip time of the light in the external cavity (delay time) for intermediate and long delay tim...
متن کاملLocking Bandwidth of Actively Mode-Locked Semiconductor Lasers
The locking bandwidth of an actively mode-locked semiconductor laser is a measure of its tolerance to variations in the input drive frequency. At frequencies outside the locking bandwidth, the output pulses from the laser exhibit large amplitude fluctuations and timing jitter. This paper investigates the locking bandwidths of fundamentally driven and harmonically driven high-repetition-rate act...
متن کاملMode - locked fiber ring lasers with semiconductor optical
This thesis is on the development of high-speed pulsed lasers at wavelengths around 1.55 m for applications in the fiber optic communications field. The realization of future optical transmission systems and signal processing circuits will require such optical pulse sources, capable of producing picosecond pulses with a low timing jitter at repetition rates of tens or even hundreds of Gigahertz...
