Locked Multichannel Generation and Management by Use of a Fabry–Perot Etalon in a Mode-Locked Cr:Forsterite Laser Cavity
نویسندگان
چکیده
We demonstrate a method to manage the locked multichannel output from a mode-locked Cr:forsterite laser cavity, which was achieved by inserting a Fabry–Perot etalon into the oscillator. It is found that the thickness of the etalon determines the channel spacing and its surface reflectivity affects channel linewidth and channel pulsewidth. Following Fabry–Perot theory, we can use these facts to control the characteristics of these locked multichannels.

Simultaneous multiwavelength generation from a mode-locked all-solid-state Cr:forsterite laser.
We demonstrate a multiple-channel, mode-locked, all-solid-state Cr:forsterite laser. By inserting an etalon into the laser cavity, we have generated 12 phase-locked channels with 9-19-ps pulse width near 1230 nm with 280-mW average output power from a single laser oscillator. By tuning the etalon bandwidth we can shorten the pulse width in a specific channel to 1.8 ps.
متن کاملA semiconductor-based, frequency-stabilized mode-locked laser using a phase modulator and an intracavity etalon.
We report a frequency-stabilized semiconductor-based mode-locked laser that uses a phase modulator and an intracavity Fabry-Perot etalon for both active mode-locking and optical frequency stabilization. A twofold multiplication of the repetition frequency of the laser is inherently obtained in the process. The residual timing jitter of the mode-locked pulse train is 13 fs (1 Hz to 100 MHz), mea...

By spectrally slicing a single longitudinal-mode from a master weak-resonant-cavity Fabry-Perot laser diode with transient wavelength scanning and tracking functions, the broadened self-injection-locking of a slave weak-resonant-cavity Fabry-Perot laser diode is demonstrated to achieve bi-directional transmission in a 200-GHz array-waveguide-grating channelized dense-wavelength-division-multipl...
متن کاملMatched-filter detection of mode-locked laser signals.
The passive Fabry-Perot cavity is shown to be a good practical approach to the match-filter optimization for the sensitive detection of mode-locked laser signals. Doppler measurements of relative motion over a wide range of velocities are possible simply by measuring the cavity length for a peak output.
متن کاملSide-mode transmission diagnosis of a multichannel selectable injection-locked Fabry-Perot Laser Diode with anti-reflection coated front facet.
Theory and experiments on the side-mode-suppression-ratio (SMSR) enhancement and the linewidth reduction of a Fabry-Perot laser diode (FPLD) side-mode-injection-locked by using another FPLD are demonstrated to realize its potential application as a DWDM transmitter source. The SMSR, the spectral linewidth and the linewidth enhancement factor are simulated to realize the limitation of the FPLD-F...
