In this review, the potential of mode-locked lasers based on advanced quantum-dot (QD)
active media to generate short optical pulses is analysed. A comprehensive review of …

We report a simple method to exploit the typical properties of solitons on a finite background
in order to generate high-repetition-rate and high-quality optical pulse trains. We take …

We present a new technique for extending the decay time of the impulse response function
of a Fabry-Perot filter while simultaneously maintaining a large bandwidth. It involves double …

Using a delay differential equation model with two time delays, we investigate the dynamics
of a semiconductor laser with an active cavity coupled to an external passive cavity. Our …

We show that the amplitude and phase shaping of only four sidebands of the optical
spectrum is sufficient to synthesize parabolic, triangular, or flat-top pulse trains at high …

Solitons have been the focus of intense research since their discovery in the nineteenth
century and have revolutionized various fields of science and technology, leading to …

We demonstrate passive mode locking of a Nd: vanadate (Nd: YVO 4) laser to repetition
rates of up to 13 GHz. With Ti: sapphire pumping, we achieved mode locking at 13 GHz with …

A miniature Nd: vanadate (Nd: YVO4) laser is presented which was passively modelocked at
the very high repetition rate of 29GHz using a semiconductor saturable absorber mirror …

We present methods for obtaining high-repetition-rate full duty-cycle RZ optical pulse trains
from lower rate laser sources. These methods exploit the memory properties of the Fabry …
