“…We simulate an extended-cavity Fabry-Perot MLLD with parameters similar to those in Avrutin et al (2005) (L las ≈ 2 mm, giving a repetition rate of 20 GHz, with a 50 µm long SA section and about 1/2 of the remaining cavity active and the other 1/2 passive, as in Fig. 1).…”

“…Here, τ 0 SA = τ SA (N SA = 0), and the constant F 0 can be evaluated microscopically from the QW parameter; here, it is roughly estimated (∼ 400 kV/cm) from Avrutin et al (2005) and .…”

“…The model is described in detail elsewhere Avrutin et al (2005); here, we concentrate on the features relevant to this problem. The essence of the model is a set of equations for the slowly varying amplitudes of right-and left-propagating light waves:…”

The effects of optical feedback on the dynamics of mode-locked lasers are investigated numerically. It is found that, with an external reflectance in excess of a critical value, stable fundamental mode-locked operation is destroyed in most cases, except possibly where the external cavity length is near a multiple of the optical length of the laser. Optical isolation by concatenated amplifier-absorber modules has been investigated and found to be possible in principle, but requiring high currents and fast SA circuit response times and with its quality dependent on the module and reflector geometry.

“…In the bulk of the calculations so far, we simulate an extended-cavity Fabry-Perot monolithic laser construction with parameters similar to those in the examples of [4] (a 50ptm long saturable absorber section with about 1/2 of the remaining cavity active and the other half passive). A remote reflector is included in the system, with the strength and the position of the reflector varied.…”

“…We use the in-house traveling-wave laser model LasTiDom [4], which has been previously used and tested for various laser constructions. In the bulk of the calculations so far, we simulate an extended-cavity Fabry-Perot monolithic laser construction with parameters similar to those in the examples of [4] (a 50ptm long saturable absorber section with about 1/2 of the remaining cavity active and the other half passive).…”
