Subpicosecond pulse generation at 245 GHz using a quantum-dash-based passive mode-locked laser emitting at 1.53 μ
01 January 2008
We demonstrate ~590 fs pulse generation at a 245 GHz repetition rate using a one-section Fabry-Perot quantum-dash-based laser. A time-bandwidth product of 0.41 and average output power in excess of 20 mW are achieved.
