Novel ultrafast semiconductor lasers
Novel ultrafast semiconductor lasers Ursula Keller ETH Zürich SESAM modelocked VECSELs and MIXSELs are attractive semiconductor laser sources that deliver ultrashort laser pulses with picosecond and femtosecond pulse durations in combination with watt-level average output power levels in the gigahertz repetition rate range. The excellent beam quality and low-noise performance makes them highly ...
متن کاملUltrafast photonic crystal lasers
We describe recent progress in photonic crystal nanocavity lasers with an emphasis on our recent results on ultrafast pulse generation. These lasers produce pulses on the picosecond scale, corresponding to only hundreds of optical cycles. We describe laser dynamics in optically pumped single cavities and in coupled cavity arrays, at low and room temperature. Such ultrafast, efficient, and compa...
متن کاملHigh power ultrafast lasers
In this article, we review progress in the development of high peak-power ultrafast lasers, and discuss in detail the design issues which determine the performance of these systems. Presently, lasers capable of generating terawatt peak powers with unprecedented short pulse duration can now be built on a single optical table in a small-scale laboratory, while large-scale lasers can generate peak...
متن کاملFiber-lasers for ultrafast optics
The current status of a fiber-based ultrafast technology is reviewed. Pulse generation techniques capable of producing femtosecond pulses are discussed. Here we describe passive and active–passive mode locking techniques as well as linear and nonlinear fiber amplifiers. Thirtyfemtosecond pulses may be generated directly from fiber oscillators or by implementing pulse compression techniques. The...
متن کاملUltrafast Lasers Drill Teeth and Improve Memory
When physicists talk about chaos, they generally mean that the outcome of a sequence of events depends sensitively on the starting conditions. The common example is the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil creating a hurricane in Texas. Many real-life systems are to some extent chaotic. At first glance, modelling and predicting such systems might seem hopeless because no one could ever measure...
