Recent experimental work on semiconductor-based harmonically mode-locked lasers
geared toward low noise applications is reviewed. Active, harmonic mode-locking of …

We review the development of a new class of high-power, edge-emitting, semiconductor
optical gain medium based on the slab-coupled optical waveguide (SCOW) concept. We …

This paper presents recent results in the development of novel ultrafast technologies based
on the generation and application of stabilized optical frequency combs. By using novel …

A self-starting passively mode-locked fiber laser with a carbon nanotube-based saturable
absorber and a fiber-based bandpass filter (BPF) is proposed. Incorporation of a BPF into …

We present noise measurements of a pulse train emitted from an actively stabilized
semiconductor-saturable-absorber-mirror (SESAM) modelocked vertical external cavity …

We report the demonstration of a lensed-fiber-pigtailed InGaAsP-InP quantum-well
semiconductor optical amplifier based on the slab-coupled optical waveguide (SCOW) …

We demonstrate an experimental reduction of timing jitter in a nonlinear-polarization-
evolution-based passively mode-locked fiber laser. This laser operates on the stretched …

For the first time to our knowledge, continuous nonsegmented channel waveguides in
periodically poled KTiOPO_4 with guided orthogonal polarizations are used to demonstrate …

We propose and demonstrate an improved Talbot laser including a regenerative RF
feedback loop. This architecture greatly enhances both amplitude and noise performances …

A semiconductor-based mode-locked laser source with low repetition rate, ultralow
amplitude, and phase noise is introduced. A harmonically mode-locked semiconductor …
