“…The model has been extended to take into account a quantum dot material model [24,25], hybrid mode-locking [26,27] and external optical injection [28]. Further, for a quantum dot model with ground-and excited state lasing, a multi-section modification of the DDE model was proposed, which permits us to take into account more symmetric cavity designs and tapered waveguides [29][30][31] (see also [32], where a multi-section model for a linear-cavity ML laser was developed).…”

We study a passively mode-locked semiconductor ring laser subject to optical feedback from an external mirror. Using a delay differential equation model for the mode-locked laser, we are able to systematically investigate the resonance effects of the inter-spike interval time of the laser and the roundtrip time of the light in the external cavity (delay time) for intermediate and long delay times. We observe synchronization plateaus following the ordering of the well-known Farey sequence. Our results show that in agreement with the experimental results a reduction of the timing jitter is possible if the delay time is chosen close to an integer multiple of the inter-spike interval time of the laser without external feedback. Outside the main resonant regimes the timing jitter is drastically increased by the feedback.

“…The term ηe iωt represents optical injection with η denoting the injection strength and ω = 2π ν. Here ν = ν − ν 0 measures the detuning of the frequency ν of injected light from [6,[11][12][13][14][15].…”

We study analytically and numerically a delay differential model of a passively mode-locked semiconductor laser subjected to a single-frequency coherent injection. The width of the locking cone is calculated asymptotically in the limit of small injection and zero line-width enhancement factors and compared to that obtained by direct numerical integration of the model equations. The dependence of the locking cone on the laser parameters is discussed.

“…This is an essential assumption of our model, since the system under consideration here is a linear cavity, where forwards and backwards propagating waves are expected to play a similar role. However, support for this model is found in [11], where qualitative agreement between bifurcation diagrams showing different solution regimes have been observed for a unidirectional ring cavity model and a model with two counter propagating waves. Our model is a lumped element model, where the dispersion of the laser cavity and bandwidth limitation of the active sections are treated via a separate component.…”

Abstract:We report the first theoretical investigation of passive mode-locking in photonic crystal mode-locked lasers. Related work has investigated coupled-resonator-optical-waveguide structures in the regime of active mode-locking [Opt. Express 13, 4539-4553 (2005)]. An extensive numerical investigation of the influence of key parameters of the active sections and the photonic crystal cavity on the laser performance is presented. The results show the possibility of generating stable and high quality pulses in a large parameter region. For optimized dispersion properties of the photonic crystal waveguide cavity, the pulses have sub picosecond widths and are nearly transform limited.
