Passive mode-locked laser based on quantum dot superlattice

Abstract

Passive mode-locking is achieved in two sectional lasers with an active layer based on superlattice formed by ten layers of quantum dots. Tunnel coupling of ten layers changes the structural polarization properties: the ratio between the TE and TM polarization absorption coefficients is less by a factor of 1.8 in the entire electroluminescence spectrum range for the superlattice.
