Variable frequency picosecond optical pulse generation from laser diodes by electrical feedback

Abstract

High repetition rate picosecond optical pulse generation is achieved by providing electrical feedback (with and without external gain) to a self-pulsating laser diode. The feedback improves pulsation short-term stability (<25-kHz frequency jitter) and narrows the laser pulses (14 ps).
