Abstract

A simple, versatile model for the dynamics of electrically and optically pumped vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting lasers mode locked by semiconductor saturable absorber mirror is presented. The difference between the laser operation in the linear and folded cavity, as well as the potential for colliding pulse operation, are studied.
