Journal ArticleDOI

GaAs distributed Bragg reflector lasers

TL;DR: In this article, an equivalent cavity approach is used to derive the oscillation condition of a distributed Bragg reflector laser, and the effect of lossy reflectors is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nondegenerate optical oscillation in a resonator formed by two phase-conjugate mirrors.

TL;DR: It is found experimentally and theoretically that in a resonator bounded by two phase-conjugate mirrors (PCM's), unlike in resonators with one PCM and one conventional mirror, the oscillation frequency differs from that of the pumping beams.
Journal ArticleDOI

Paramagnetic Resonance and Charge Compensation of Tetravalent Uranium (U4+) in Calcium, Strontium, and Barium Fluorides

TL;DR: A new electron spin paramagnetic resonance spectrum in CaF2 doped with uranium is attributed to U4+ in this article, which possesses axial symmetry about the 〈111〉 directions and is describable by a spin Hamiltonian with g⊥=0±0.15 and gII=3.238± 0.005 at 4.2°K.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timing jitter and pulse energy fluctuations in a passively mode‐locked two‐section quantum‐well laser coupled to an external cavity

TL;DR: In this paper, the stability of pulse energy and timing in a passively mode-locked two-section quantum-well laser was measured, and spectral analysis of the 546MHz pulse train revealed rms timing jitter of 5.5 ps above 50 Hz and rms pulse energy fluctuations of < 0.52% above 200 Hz.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rise time of pulsed parametric oscillators

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived general relations that describe the rise time of the output power of parametric oscillators driven by a time-dependent pump, including singly and doubly resonant oscillators.
