H. Ghafourishiraz et al., ANALYSIS OF A SEMILINEAR TAPERED-WAVE-GUIDE LASER-DIODE AMPLIFIER, Microwave and optical technology letters, 12(2), 1996, pp. 53-56
We have studied the performance characteristics of a semilinear tapere
d-waveguide laser-diode amplifier: Ir has been found that an improveme
nt of over 10 dB in saturation output power can be obtained when the a
mplifier is properly designed. The effect of the output width of this
amplifier on the saturation output power; polarization, and amplified
spontaneous emission noise has been studied. (C) 1996 John Wiley & Son
