    摘要: A semiconductor laser may include an active region having a longitudinal axis, a rear facet end and a front facet end. The front facet end emitting an output beam of the semiconductor laser. The semiconductor laser may include a plurality of diffraction gratings positioned along the longitudinal axis of the active region. The plurality of diffraction gratings including a first diffraction grating positioned proximate the rear facet end of the active region and at least one additional diffraction grating positioned longitudinally between the first diffraction grating and the front facet. The first diffraction grating having a first kappa value and the at least one additional diffraction grating having at least a second kappa value, the first kappa value being greater than the second kappa value.

    摘要: Described is a semiconductor optical amplifier (600, 900) comprising an active layer extending between an input (601, 901) and an output (602, 902) of the optical amplifier, the active layer having a noise suppression part (603, 903) operative to reduce noise of the optical amplifier and a second part (604, 904), the noise suppression part (603, 903) being adjacent to the input (601, 901) of the optical amplifier and having an epitaxial structure different to the second part (604, 904), the noise suppression part (603, 903) being configured to, during operation of the optical amplifier, present a gain that is blue-shifted by at least 20 nm compared to the second part (604, 904). This may allow the noise of the optical amplifier to be reduced, which may improve the performance of the device.

    摘要: In mindestens einer Ausführungsform umfasst der Umgebungssensor (1) zur Erfassung von zumindest einem Umgebungsparameter eine Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2), eine Ummantelung (4), deren Brechungsindex sich als Funktion des Umgebungsparameters ändert, einen ersten elektrischen Kontakt (5) sowie einen zweiten elektrischen Kontakt (6) zur Bestromung der Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2). Die Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2) weist die Form eines allgemeinen Zylinders mit einer Hauptachse (7) auf. In Richtungen senkrecht zur Hauptachse (7) ist die Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2) zumindest teilweise von der Ummantelung (4) bedeckt. Die Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2) weist einen Brechungsindex auf, der größer ist als der Brechungsindex der Ummantelung (4). Die Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2) ist dazu eingerichtet, innerhalb des Umgebungssensors (1) Lasermoden auszubilden. Ferner ist der Umgebungssensor (1) so eingerichtet, dass in dessen bestimmungsgemäßem Betrieb eine Änderung des Brechungsindexes der Ummantelung (4) eine Änderung des elektrischen Widerstands der Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2) aufgrund einer Änderung von Strahlungsverlusten innerhalb der Halbleiterschichtenfolge (2) bewirkt.

    摘要: A quantum cascade laser or interband cascade laser for outputting a frequency comb. The laser's active waveguide comprises a combination of narrow and wide sections which are engineered in combination such that the laser is operable to produce lasing only in the fundamental mode across the operating wavelength range, the narrow section squeezing light propagating in the waveguide to output a frequency comb via four-wave mixing. The narrow and wide sections are further engineered to reduce the waveguide's net GVD, and also to reduce the GVD variation across the operating range compared to a comparable waveguide that is of constant width, thus producing a more stable frequency comb. The proportion of the laser's full dynamic range (i.e. from threshold to the rollover current where the maximum output power is achieved) over which lasing remains in the frequency comb regime is thereby increased compared with a constant width single mode waveguide.
