Abstract
Fiber-coupled semiconductor lasers have been studied when pumped by high-power short electrical pulses of 5 ns width and leading front duration below 1 ns. In this pumping regime, it is possible to ensure significant sharpening of output pulses, the duration of which decreases below 80 ps for a single-mode laser and below 120 ps for a broad aperture multimode laser at an output peak optical power as high as 1.5 and 27 W, respectively.
