چکیده

An in-well pumped InGaAs disk laser emitting at 984 nm is presented. The device is designed to eliminate major loss mechanisms attributed to heat generation in semiconductor disk lasers. An output power of close to 7W at room temperature is achieved by optical excitation with a fiber-coupled 940 nm diode laser. Strong cooling or the use of heat spreaders with high thermal conductivity is not necessary. For the investigated pump levels, absorptance values of 48% are realized without pump recycling. The optical output shows no indication of thermal rollover at room temperature, but is limited by the currently available pump power.

Layer Design of Highly Efficient Optically Pumped Semiconductor Disk Lasers

Optically pumped semiconductor disk lasers (OPSDLs) with extended cavities are surfaceemitting laser devices which efficiently convert the low-beam-quality emission of a pump laser to a high-beam-quality circular non-astigmatic laser emission. Furthermore, the extended cavity can be utilized for intra-cavity second harmonic generation by insertion of nonlinear optical crystals. By that way, the...

Self-mode-locked quantum-dot vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting laser.

We present the first self-mode-locked optically pumped quantum-dot semiconductor disk laser. Our mode-locked device emits sub-picosecond pulses at a wavelength of 1040 nm and features a record peak power of 460 W at a repetition rate of 1.5 GHz. In this work, we also investigate the temperature dependence of the pulse duration as well as the time-bandwidth product for stable mode locking.
