Journal ArticleDOI

Analytical considerations of Bragg coupling coefficients and distributed‐feedback x‐ray lasers in single crystals

TL;DR: In this article, expressions for the coupling coefficients characterizing Bragg x-ray scattering in single crystals were derived, which were used to obtain the threshold gain of a new type of x•ray distributed feedback laser.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nonlinear optical beam propagation and solitons in photorefractive media

TL;DR: In this article, a self-contained approach to the theory of self-trapped nonlinear propagation is presented, which is far from being definitive, together with the most important experimental demonstrations obtained in the last few years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generation and quenching of intensity pulsations in semiconductor lasers coupled to external cavities

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the dependence of the pulsation characteristics on the external cavity length using a saturable absorber model for self-pulsing and non-Pulsing lasers coupled to external cavities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polarization recovery in phase conjugation by modal dispersal

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate scalar phase conjugation, i.e., one in which both transverse components of the incident beam are phase-convugated, which is achieved by tandem combination of a mode scrambling fiber and a photorefractive passive phase-convugate mirror.
Journal ArticleDOI

InGaAsP/InP undercut mesa laser with planar polyimide passivation

TL;DR: An undercut mesa laser is fabricated on an n + -InP substrate using a single step liquid phase epitaxy growth process and a planar structure is obtained by using a polyimide filling layer as mentioned in this paper.
