    Spatially modulated broad-area lasers for narrow lateral far-field divergence
    (Washington, DC : Soc., 2021) Zeghuzi, Anissa; Koester, Jan-Philipp; Radziunas, Mindaugas; Christopher, Heike; Wenzel, Hans; Knigge, Andrea
    A novel laser design is presented that combines a longitudinal-lateral gain-loss modulation with an additional phase tailoring achieved by etching rectangular trenches. At 100 A pulsed operation, simulations predict a far-field profile with 0.3° full width at half maximum (ΘFWHM=0.3∘) where a 0.4°-wide main lobe contains 40% of the emitted optical output power (Θ40%=0.4∘). While far-field measurements of these structured lasers emitting 10 ns long pulses with 35 W peak power confirm a substantial enhancement of radiation within the central 1∘ angular range, the measured far-field intensity outside of the obtained central peak remains high.

    Hybrid integrated mode-locked laser using a GaAs-based 1064 nm gain chip and a SiN external cavity
    (Washington, DC : Soc., 2022) Vissers, Ewoud; Poelman, Stijn; Wenzel, Hans; Christopher, Heike; Van Gasse, Kasper; Knigge, Andrea; Kuyken, Bart
    External cavity mode-locked lasers could be used as comb sources for high volume application such as LIDAR and dual comb spectroscopy. Currently demonstrated chip scale integrated mode-locked lasers all operate in the C-band. In this paper, a hybrid-integrated external cavity mode-locked laser working at 1064 nm is demonstrated, a wavelength beneficial for optical coherence tomography or Raman spectroscopy applications. Additionally, optical injection locking is demonstrated, showing an improvement in the optical linewidth, and an increased stability of the comb spectrum.
