Abstract
We report for the first time the generation of short optical pulses with ox ide-isolated stripe? V-grooved AlGaAs-GaAs quantum wire diode lasers. The s hortest pulse width of 21 ps is currently achieved for a 350 mu m long unco ated device by a streak camera, with electrical pulses of 350 ps wide and 1 5 V high. The spectral characteristics of the gain switched QWR laser are a lso presented. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
