Anti reflection coatings in semiconductor lasers: effects on power emission and external cavity lasing

Abstract: Parameters controlling light generation and emission in semiconductor lasers were analyzed. Effects of facet reflectivity on laser emission and the overall power dissipation were studied. It is shown with typical values that, optimized conditions of facet coating can reduce the laser power dissipation by several hundred milliwatts for optical output levels on the order of 10 mw. A mathematical model was developed for external cavity lasing of semiconductor lasers. Effects of threshold shift and changes in slop… Show more

“…4 In a recent article, we presented a theoretical investigation on the effect of ECL system parameters on the quality of external cavity lasing. 9 In this paper, we describe a systematic analysis of a mid-infrared external cavity laser at 2.4 μm and give the range limiting factors for wavelength tuning. Our analysis shows the competitive nature of natural FP modes of emission with external cavity lasing, and also addresses the issue of achieving single mode emission through FP mode suppression.…”
