Narrow-Divergence Ridge Waveguide LaserLeaow, Yi-Hong 25 August 2000 (has links)
Abstract
We use InGaAlAs and InGaAsP as materials of 1.55mm multi-quantum-well spot-size converter ridge waveguide lasers. On lateral conversion, we fabricate a taper ridge waveguide. On vertical conversion, we add guard layers on each side of active layer.
For InGaAlAs ridge waveguide lasers, simulation results show a far field 16o ¡Ñ 27o¡]lateral ¡Ñ vertical¡^at guard layer width S = 0.1 mm with 300-150-50 mm narrow-tapered waveguide structure.
Due to large Zn background contamination in the MOCVD growth chamber, we did not fabricate the InGaAlAs lasers successfully. For the InGaAsP ridge waveguide lasers, we measure a far field 18o ¡Ñ 28o and a threshold current 23 mA for the 200-250-50 mm narrow-tapered waveguide structure; a far field 20o ¡Ñ 26o and a threshold current 22 mA for the 200-250-50 mm wide-tapered waveguide structure.

Single-Frequency and Mode-Locked Glass Waveguide Lasers and Fiber-Optic Waveguide Resonators for Optical CommunicationsWang, Qing January 2008 (has links)
Single-frequency and mode-locked silver film ion-exchanged glass waveguide lasers as well as all-optical clock recovery based on birefringent fiber resonators have been experimentally and theoretically studied. The theory, modeling and fabrication process of silver film ion-exchange techniques, have been discussed and presented.The UV-written gratings on both IOG-1 active and passive glass have been studied. For the first time, with a high quality narrowband grating UV-printed on the passive section of a hybrid glass, a DBR waveguide single-frequency laser is demonstrated with the linewidth less than 1 MHz and the output power of 9 mW.Novel saturable absorbers based on a fiber taper embedded in carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/polymer composite were demonstrated. The saturable absorbers were utilized to build mode-locked fiber lasers, which were studied experimentally. A mode-locked ring laser utilizing an Er-Yb-codoped glass waveguide as the gain medium was also demonstrated. In addition, short cavity mode-locked waveguide lasers with CNTs film on the top were theoretically investigated, which shows a short cavity mode-locked waveguide laser is very promising.A new concept to perform multi-channel multi-rate all-optical clock recovery based on birefringent fiber-optic waveguide resonators was discussed. The concept has been advanced to polarization-insensitive operation. The experimental results, obtained as a proof-of-concept, agree well with numerical simulations.
