“…ODE-LOCKED lasers (MLLs) are effective sources of periodic sequences of coherent optical pulses and constitute a fundamental component in a range of optical communications and spectroscopy applications [1][2][3]. Passive mode-locking (PML), based on the combination of gain and loss saturation mechanisms resulting in self-sustained pulsed optical output has been demonstrated in many different types of laser systems [4][5][6].…”

We show that mode-locked lasers fabricated on an optimized 3 quantum-well active region with a low optical confinement factor deliver pulses with increased peak power and stability over a much wider biasing range than those fabricated using a standard 5 quantum well design. Sonogram measurements indicate that sub-ps symmetrical pulses with a substantially reduced linear blue chirp are generated up to nearly three times the laser current threshold.
