Journal ArticleDOI

Dimensionality and size of photorefractive spatial solitons

Galen Duree, +6 more
- 15 Aug 1994 - 
TL;DR: Experimental results are presented that show how the sizes of the resultant photorefractive spatial solitons are independent of the amplitude of the externally applied electric field used to generate them.
Journal ArticleDOI

A self-consistent static model of the double- heterostructure laser

D. Wilt, +1 more
- 01 Sep 1981 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a static model of the double-heterostructure laser is presented which treats the p-n junction in the laser in a consistent manner, making use of the finite-element method to treat complex diode geometries.
Journal ArticleDOI

108 GHz passive mode locking of a multiple quantum well semiconductor laser with an intracavity absorber

Steve Sanders, +3 more
- 22 Jan 1990 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a two-section multiple quantum well laser is passively mode locked without an external cavity at ∼108 GHz, and the pulse widths average 2.4 ps and have a time-bandwidth product of 1.1.
Journal ArticleDOI

High quality molecular beam epitaxial growth on patterned GaAs substrates

John Smith, +3 more
- 01 Oct 1985 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a procedure for high quality molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth over finely patterned GaAs substrates which is suitable for device fabrication requiring lateral definition of small (∼1-2 μm) dimension was described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Confinement and stability in optical resonators employing mirrors with gaussian reflectivity tapers

Amnon Yariv, +1 more
- 01 Apr 1975 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the conventional analysis of "stable" optical resonators to describe unstable (non-confining) resonators with gaussian reflectivity profiles, which makes it possible to study the stability of non-confined optical resonance.
