  • In this paper, when both the refractive index grating and the gain grating exist in a 1.55um DFB laser with two cleaved mirror facets, when the phase of ρl is fixed to 0 and the phase of ρr is changed to -π/2, π, π/2, 0, the change in frequency and oscillation gain was theoretically analyzed. In the case of δL<0, the oscillation gain required for lasing is the lowest and the most stable frequency operation is obtained in the case of (ρl phase=0, ρr phase=0) and κL=10, when κL is varied from 0.1 to 10. In the case of δL>0, when (ρl phase=0, ρr phase=π) and κL=10, the oscillation gain required for lasing is the lowest and the difference between the oscillation gains of the higher-order modes is large so that the most stable frequency operation is obtained.

  • The erbium doped fibre ring laser (EDFL) is modelled using the standard propagation and rate equations of a homogeneous, two-level gain medium. The EDFL numerical simulations provide comparable results with the experimental data. The process of lasing mode competition and mode selection is clearly depicted and explained.

  • Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) is a phototautomerization occurring in the excited states of the molecules possessing a cyclic intramolecular or solvent-bridged hydrogen bond. Recently, we have developed novel ESIPT chromophores, molecules, dendrimers and polymers which show very high fluorescence quantum efficiency combined with the characteristic features of optical switching, fluorescence patterining, lasing, and electroluminescence. Broad overview of these topics will be given in this talk.

  • The crack behavior in the ceramic Nd:YAG at a laser-diode end-pumped Nd:YAG ceramic laser was investigated. The fracture critical temperature difference of the ceramic Nd:YAG is about $355^{\circ}C$. The fracture of the 2 at% and the 4 at.% ceramic Nd:YAG occurred more than 14.9 W and 6.9 W pump powers, respectively, under lasing conditions.

  • We express fundamental second-order and third- order harmonic distortions and intermodulation distortions in terms of the laser parameters. Compared to the Darcie `s result only limited to the high frequency (f >1GHz), these expression are quite valid in the entire modulation frequency region. It is found that the fundamental nonlinear distortions are strongly effected by the spontaneous emission to lasing mode as well as the gain compresion damping in the low frequency region.

  • This paper describes realized APC and pre-equalizer circuit, and their operation principle and test results. In analog optical transmitter, constant lasing power control, free of signal clipping and linearity are important considerations. We examined pre-equalizer and APC(Automatic Power Control) circuit to improve the analog optical transmitter performance.

  • GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-wire (QWR) gain-coupled distributed-feedback (GC-DFB) lasers are fabricated and characterized Constant metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth is used to avoid grating overgrowth during the fabrication of DFB structures. Numerical calculation shows large gain anisotropy by optical feedback along the DFB directions near Bragg wavelength. DFB lasing via QWR active gratings is also experimentally achieved.

  • The homogeneous line broadening in EDF leads to unstable lasing and strong mode competition. In this paper a multiwavelength fiber ring laser that overcomes these effects by using variable attenuators between the DWDM and $1{\times}N$ coupler, has been proposed. Fiber ring lasers with four and eight wavelength outputs are implemented, and we show that the output powers can be adjusted with stable operation. The EDF ring laser has one four-wavelength output and four of single wavelengths, with OSNR of 50 and 60 dB respectively.
