The Sample Analysis at Mars Investigation and Instrument Suite

Paul R. Mahaffy, +84 more
TL;DR: The Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) investigation of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) addresses the chemical and isotopic composition of the atmosphere and volatiles extracted from solid samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

CW performance of an InGaAs-GaAs-AlGaAs laterally-coupled distributed feedback (LC-DFB) ridge laser diode

TL;DR: In this paper, a single-mode distributed feedback (DFB) laser diodes were constructed from a single epitaxial growth using lateral evanescent coupling of the optical field to a surface grating etched along the sides of the ridge.
Journal ArticleDOI

InGaAs/InGaAsP/InP strained-layer quantum well lasers at about 2 microns

TL;DR: The first successful operation of InGaAs strained layer quantum well (Sl-QW) injection laser at about 2 microns was reported in this article, where the threshold current density and the external differential quantum efficiency of 5 microns wide and 800 microns long ridge waveguide laser were 25 kA/sq cm and 6 percent, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-power laterally coupled distributed-feedback GaSb-based diode lasers at 2 μm wavelength

TL;DR: In this article, GaSb-based laterally coupled distributed-feedback (DFB) diode lasers designed to operate at wavelengths near 2.05μm were reported, where second-order Bragg gratings were etched alongside narrow ridge waveguides to enable single-mode DFB operation in 2mm-long laser diodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Double ion exchanged chirp grating lens in lithium niobate waveguides

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated optical chirped grating lens has been produced which exhibits high throughput efficiency (75%) and large angular field of view (3°), and the waveguide substrate is x-cut lithium niobate, and ion exchange in benzoic acid is the method used for making the lens and waveguide.
