“…Then the research in this field has grown with the development of semiconductor MLLs in the 90s. As was identified and discussed by Avrutin et al (2000), there are two main types of time-domain modelocking theories. There are the lumped-element models (Koumans and van Roijen 1996;Leegwater 1996) and the fully distributed time-domain models (Yu et al 1998).…”

Modeling of integrated extended cavity InP/InGaAsP semiconductor modelocked ring lasers

In this paper a model and simulation results of integrated semiconductor passively modelocked ring lasers are presented. The model includes nonlinear effects such as two-photon absorption and a non-linear refractive index, a logarithmic gain-carrier relation, and concentration dependent radiative and non-radiative carrier recombination rates. The optical bandwidth of the system is controlled by a digital filter. The model has been used to simulate two geometries of ring modelocked lasers. The first is a symmetric design, where the two counter propagating pulses in the cavity experience the same amplification and absorption. The second is an asymmetric design where the differences for the two directions of pulse propagation are maximised. Simulation results show that a symmetrical cavity shows a several times wider window for its operating parameters for stable modelocking.

Resumen-Se presentan los avances realizados en el desarrollo de generadores de peines de frecuencias ópticas (OFCG Frequency Comb Generator) mediante circuitos integrados fotónicos (PIC, Photonic Integrated Circuits). Estos son diseñados y fabricados en un proceso de construcción común en plataformas genéricas de integración. Se muestran los resultados experimentales de las diferentes clases de OFCG destacándose los grandes anchos de banda logrados, en el orden de THz.

“…Some examples are GaAs Bragg mirrors [14], nanotubes [15], and graphene saturable absorbers [16]. In nano-scale semiconductor laser diodes, the saturable absorber can also be integrated monolithically in the quantum well/dot structure by electrically isolating one section of the device [17,18]. The typical design parameters of the saturable absorbers are the non-saturable loss, the modulation depth, and the response time.…”

Abstract:We describe spectral or dynamical methods that can be used to determine the stability and noise performance of modelocked lasers. We first review methods that have been used to date to theoretically and computationally study passively modelocked lasers, contrasting evolutionary and dynamical approaches and their application to full, averaged, and reduced models. We then develop the spectral methods and show how they can be used to determine the stability and to calculate the timing jitter and power spectral density for any averaged model with any equilibrium pulse shape. We review work that has been done on soliton lasers using soliton perturbation theory from this dynamical perspective, and we contrast the simplicity and generality of our methods to prior work. We close with a discussion of how to extend our approach from averaged models to full models.
