Monolithic colliding-pulse modelocked quantum-well lasers

Absfrucf-Integration of the whole mode-locked laser onto a excitation and optical output are produced. These produce single piece of semiconductor offers a great deal of advantages, including total elimination of optical alignment processes, im-proved mechanical stability, and the generation of short optical Dulses at much hieher reDetition freauencies. We utilize the significant frequency chirp [111 and timing jitter [121 as-sociated with the gain-switched optical pulses. properties Short Optical pulses with very Pure semiconductor lase; processing technologies to implement the colliding-pulse mode-locking (CPM) scheme, which is known to and low timing jitter can be obtained by mode-locked semiconductor lasers. Earlier works have successfullv re-effectively shorten the pulses and increase stability, on a mini-ature monolithic semiconductor cavity. In this paper, we re-Dulse mode-locked auantum-well lasers
