Generation of wavelength tunable optical pulses with SMSR exceeding 50 dB by self-seeding a gain-switched source containing two FP lasers
Maguire, Paul J. and Anandarajah, Prince M. and Barry, Liam P. and Kaszubowska-Anandarajah, Aleksandra (2003) Generation of wavelength tunable optical pulses with SMSR exceeding 50 dB by self-seeding a gain-switched source containing two FP lasers. In: LEOS-03 - The 16th Annual Meeting of the IEEE Lasers and Electro-Optics Society 2003, 2003. Full text available as: AbstractIn this letter, we show the generation of shorter pulses (∼20 ps) that exhibit side mode suppression ratios (SMSR's) greater than 50 dB and wider tuning range (48.91 nm). Our technique is based on the self-seeding of a gain-switched source containing two FP lasers. Download statistics
