Time-Domain Vertical-External-Cavity Semiconductor Laser Simulation

A time-domain simulator for vertical external cavity semiconductor lasers (VECSEL) is described in detail. The core of the model employs a digital filter method to model the optical properties of the active mirror over a wide range of frequencies, temperatures, and carrier densities. The method is also applicable without modifications to the time-domain simulation of semiconductor saturable mirrors (SESAM). As an illustration, ultrashort pulse generation is simulated in two kinds of devices: in a synchronously pumped VECSEL and in a laser passively mode-locked by SESAM.     

Joint time-frequency measurements of modelocked semiconductor diodelasers and dynamics using frequency-resolved optical gating

Joint time-frequency ultrafast measurements using frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG) have been used to provide a fundamental understanding of: (1) ultrashort pulse propagation in semiconductor optical amplifiers; (2) the modelocking dynamics in external cavity semiconductor diode lasers; and (3) correlated multiple-wavelength generation from mode locked semiconductor lasers. The pulse shaping and chirping effects measured by FROG are shown to be attributed to intracavity gain and saturable absorbing dynamics, as well as group velocity dispersion. In addition, the intracavity gain dynamics show a regime of transient unsaturated gain, which can be exploited to allow phase-correlated multiple-wavelength modelocked operation from a single-stripe external-cavity semiconductor diode laser. In this case, FROG techniques are used to understand the underlying mechanisms involved in the phase correlation process

This is the first demonstration of optical pulsed lasers based on the carbon nanotube technology, and the first practical application of carbon nanotubes in the field of applied optics.
