Dispersion-induced dynamics of coupled modes in a semiconductor laser with saturable absorption
Finbarr O'Callaghan, Simon Osborne, Stephen O'Brien
We present an experimental and theoretical study of modal nonlinear dynamics in a specially designed dual-mode semiconductor Fabry-Perot laser with a saturable absorber. At zero bi…
Wavelength switching dynamics of two-colour semiconductor lasers with optical injection and feedback
Simon Osborne, Patrycja Heinricht, Nicola Brandonisio +2
The wavelength switching dynamics of two-colour semiconductor lasers with optical injection and feedback are presented. These devices incorporate slotted regions etched into the la…
Timing characterization of 100 GHz passively mode-locked discrete mode laser diodes
David Bitauld, Simon Osborne, Stephen O'Brien
We report on the characterization of the timing stability of passively mode-locked discrete mode diode laser sources. These are edge-emitting devices with a spatially varying refra…
Passive harmonic mode-locking by mode selection in Fabry-Perot diode lasers with patterned effective index
D. Bitauld, S. Osborne, S. O'Brien
We demonstrate passive harmonic mode-locking of a quantum well laser diode designed to support a discrete comb of Fabry-Perot modes. Spectral filtering of the mode spectrum was ach…
All-optical memory based on the injection locking bistability of a two-color laser diode
S. Osborne, K. Buckley, A. Amann +1
We study the injection locking bistability of a specially engineered two-color semiconductor Fabry-Perot laser. Oscillation in the uninjected primary mode leads to a bistability of…
Two-Color Fabry-Perot Laser Diode with THz Primary Mode Spacing
S. O'Brien, S. Osborne, K. Buckley +7
A class of multiwavelength Fabry-Perot lasers is introduced where the spectrum is tailored through a non-periodic patterning of the cavity effective index. The cavity geometry is o…
