Characteristic switching-on and passive mode-locking times in a quantum-dash Fabry-Pérot laser diode.
In: International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks, 2-5 July 2012.
In this paper, we present the experimental investigation of the switching-on and passive mode-locking times of
a Fabry-Pérot quantum dash laser diode. Their values are 30ns and 8ns respectively. These times are measured in
order to study the phenomenon of mode-locking in this device and its potential application for packet switching
networks.
