Mode-locked Diode Lasers from Microscopic Analysis to Femtosecond Pulses

Abstract

The goal of the project was to elaborate how sub-100 fs optical pulses can be generated with mode-locked semiconductor diode lasers. Our strategy for this elaboration is based on a fundamental understanding of the pulse shaping dynamics in the semiconductor with particular emphasis on the influence of many-body effects and nonequilibrium dynamics in the semiconductor.
