Gain competition in dual wavelength quantum cascade lasers.
We investigated dual wavelength mid-infrared quantum cascade lasers based on heterogeneous cascades. We found that due to gain competition laser action tends to start in higher order lateral modes. The mid-infrared mode with the lower threshold current reduces population inversion for the second laser with the higher threshold current due to stimulated emission. We developed a rate equation mod...
متن کاملDissipative soliton and synchronously dual-wavelength mode-locking Yb:YSO lasers.
We experimentally demonstrate the dissipative soliton mode-locking operation of a Yb:YSO laser by using an all-normal dispersion cavity. Strongly chirped pulses are obtained with pulse duration of 9.3 ps at a repetition rate of 113.4 MHz. The central wavelength is 1082 nm with 3.1 nm FWHM bandwidth. A dual-wavelength synchronously mode-locking operation at central wavelengths of 1059.2 nm and 1...
متن کاملWavelength multistability in lasers
We theoretically discuss the impact of the cavity configuration on the possible longitudinal mode multistability in homogeneously broadened lasers. We present a general method allowing to perform a direct bifurcation diagram and to determine the stability of the solutions of a Travelling wave model. We find, in agreement with recent experimental reports, that multistability is more easily reach...
متن کاملMulti-Wavelength Fiber Lasers
Nowadays, multiwavelength lasers are of great interest for telecommunications and sensors multiplexing. These lasers also have a great potential in the fiber-optic test and measurement of WDM components. The requirements for such optical sources are: a high number of channels over large wavelength span, moderate output powers (of the order of 100μW per channel) with good optical signal to noise...
متن کاملMechanism for enhanced wavelength tuning in gain-levered InP quantum dot lasers
Peak gain wavelength tuning via the gain-lever effect is demonstrated in segmented contact InP quantum dot Fabry–Perot lasers. A tuning range of 6.5 ± 0.1 nm was recorded in the lasing spectra of a 1.9 mm long broad area device operating at 22°C. The authors clarify the nature of the tuning mechanism and identify the critical material and device parameters that determine the limits of the wavel...
