Abstract
We characterized the reflectivity and the modal discrimination of intracavity reflectors (ICRs) with different numbers of slots and presented harmonic mode-locking operation of a monolithic semiconductor laser comprising a compound cavity formed by a single deeply etched slot ICR fabricated from 1.55 mu m AlGaInAs strained quantum well material. Gaussian pulses were generated at a 161.8 GHz repetition rate with a pulse duration of 1.67 ps and a time-bandwidth product of 0.81. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America
