Vk. Batovrin et al., GENERATION OF PICOSECOND VISIBLE PULSES I N AN INHOMOGENEOUSLY EXCITED (GAIN)P HETEROLASER, Kvantovaa elektronika, 23(8), 1996, pp. 699-700
An investigation was made of pulsed excitation of an injection laser w
ith a noninjected region, performing the function of an intracavity sa
turable absorber, and with a double-sided (GaIn)P/(AlGaIn)P heterostru
cture. This laser generated single optical pulses in the spectral rang
e 645-665 nm, of down to 20 ps duration, and with a peak power up to 1
.5 W.
