Longitudinal Mode Competition in Chirped Grating Distributed Feedback Lasers

Gain competition often inhibits the simultaneous lasing of multiple longitudinal modes in homogeneously broadened laser systems. A stability analysis is developed to demonstrate that the two lowest order degenerate longitudinal modes in an indexcoupled distributed feedback (DFB) laser will lase simultaneously when the index grating is chirped asymmetrically along the axis of the device. This ch...

Widely tunable distributed-feedback lasers with chirped gratings

A quasicontinuous tuning range of 65 nm at 3.2 m was obtained for continuous wave, single-longitudinal-mode operation at 77 K of an optically pumped distributed-feedback laser with a chirped grating. Interferometric lithography with spherical wavefronts was used to fabricate a large-area chirped grating whose period varied continuously in the direction of the grating lines. Tuning was achieved ...

Mode Competition in Gas and Semiconductor Lasers

The output spectrum of both gas and semiconductor lasers usually contains more than one frequency. Multimode operation in gas versus semiconductor lasers arises from different physics. In gas lasers, slow equilibration of the electron populations at different energies makes each frequency an independent single-mode laser. The slow electron diffusion in semiconductor lasers, combined with the sp...

Chirped pulse amplification in single mode Tm:fiber using a chirped Bragg grating

We report femtosecond pulse generation and chirped pulse amplification in Tm:fiber. A mode-locked oscillator operating in the soliton regime produced 800 fs pulses with 5 nm spectral bandwidth, at 40 pJ pulse energy. This oscillator seeded a pre-amplifier that utilizes a Raman soliton self-frequency shift to produce wavelength tunable pulses with 3 nJ energy, reduced pulse duration of 150 fs, a...

Mode-hop suppression of Littrow grating-tuned lasers: erratum.

A recent paper [Appl. Opt. 32, 269-274 (1993)) contained an analysis of the conditions required to suppress mode hops when one is tuning a Littrow grating-loaded laser cavity. Although the model was correct, an algebraic mistake led to a wrong conclusion. The corrected results are given and tend to recommend a previously investigated configuration.
