Journal ArticleDOI

Pseudonondiffracting slitlike beam and its analogy to the pseudonondispersing pulse

TL;DR: A new nonspreading beam is proposed for the case in which diffraction occurs only in one transverse coordinate and has the shape of a pulse in one dimension and is constant in the other (slitlike shape).
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved laser modulation response by frequency modulation to amplitude modulation conversion in transmission through a fiber grating

TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrated that transmission through a fiber grating can increase the system response of a directly modulated semiconductor laser by over 7 dB at all modulation frequencies up to 25 GHz.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-dimensional imaging of random radiation sources

TL;DR: A method to image random three-dimensional source distributions is proposed and it is shown that, by using a Michelson stellar interferometer in a prescribed fashion, one is able to measure a special form of a threedimensional degree of coherence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monolithic optoelectronic integration of a GaAlAs laser, a field‐effect transistor, and a photodiode

TL;DR: A low threshold buried heterostructure laser, a metal-semiconductor field effect transistor, and a p-i-n photodiode have been integrated on a semi-insulating GaAs substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Precise measurement of semiconductor laser chirp using effect of propagation in dispersive fiber and application to simulation of transmission through fiber gratings

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that simple rate equations do not satisfactorily account for the frequency response of real DFB lasers and describe some experimental techniques that conveniently determiner the precise laser chirp.
