Abstract

A 10 GHz harmonically mode-locked semiconductor-fiber ring laser was implemented using a semiconductor optical amplifier at $1.5\mu\textrm{m}$ The laser pulse has 13~18 ps pulse duration, 0.4~0.6 nm spectral width and was positively chirped. The output pulse with an average power of 4 dBm was compressed to 6.8 ps using 2 km long standard single mode optical fiber.

광반도체 증폭기를 이용하여 $1.5\mu\textrm{m}$파장 영역에서 발전하는 조화 모드 록킹된 10GHz 고리형 반도체-광섬유 레이저를 구현하였다. 레이저 펄스폭은 13~18ps이고, 파장 선폭은 0.4~0.6nm이며, 양으로 주파수 처핑되었다. 2km 길이의 표준단일 모드 광섬우를 이용하여 4dBm의 평균 출력을 갖는 레이저 펄스를 광섬유의 군분산 보상에 의해 펄스폭을 최대 6.8ps까지 압축시켰다.
