Manipulation of the Phase-Amplitude Coupling Factor in Quantum Nanostructure Based Devices for On-Chip Chirp Compensation and Low-Cost Applications

Abstract

The research project aims to conduct both theoretical and experimental works in the field of nonlinear dynamics and optical injection diode oscillator findings with advanced semiconductor lasers in particular Q-well, Q-dot and Q-cascade (with Q as for Quantum) established with laser gain media to establish the next generation photonic oscillators. investigator conducted preliminary research on nonlinear dynamical properties of injection-locked QC lasers. These findings are of prime importance for the performance enhancement of QC lasers, suggesting that an optical injection-locked experiment is now needed for further investigations. Fields of applications include gas spectroscopy, optical countermeasures or free-space communications, requiring stable single-mode operation with a narrow linewidth, high output power and high modulation bandwidth.
