TuG2.4 - IN-PHASE MODULATION BANDWIDTH ENHANCEMENT IN COUPLED MICROCAVITY LASER ARRAYS
Abstract
Abstract
Bandwidth enhancement in phased laser arrays is explained using small-signal frequency-domain analysis on coupled mode rate equations. In-phase modulation of asymmetric arrays produces bandwidth enhancement in agreement with experimental measurements.
WG3.3 - DIRECT SEMICONDUCTOR DIODE LASER MODE ENGINEERING AND WAVEGUIDE DESIGN
Abstract
Abstract
Starting from the desired modal field we solve for the supporting waveguide refractive index structure within a semiconductor diode laser. Specifically we analyze the problem of maximizing far-field on-axis intensity and discuss the practical aspects of waveguide design.
WP15 - ELECTRICAL DETECTION OF COHERENT COUPLING IN VERTICAL CAVITY PHASED LASER ARRAYS
Abstract
Abstract
When operated in the coherently coupled regime, microcavity laser diode arrays have an electrical signature in their differential series resistance. The mechanism of this effect is explained using a complex coupling coefficient in coupled mode rate equation theory.
