Firm Wins Contract to Develop Chiral Laser
Nov 1, 2003 — Chiral Photonics Inc. of Clifton, N.J., plans to develop and prototype chiral fiber lasers under a three-year, $2 million grant from the National Institute of Standards and Technology's Advanced Technology Program. At roughly one-fifth of the cost,...
MEMS Enable Tunable Lasers for Telecom
Nov 1, 2003 — Dynamically reconfiguring next-generation fiber optic telecom systems will require wavelength-tunable lasers that can provide a signal into any wavelength division multiplexed channel and that can switch among channels on the fly. Researchers around...
Fiber Laser Is Wavelength-Tunable for the S-Band
Oct 1, 2003 — A group at the National Chiao-Tung University in Hsinchu, Taiwan, has capitalized on recent successes with S-band erbium-doped fiber amplifiers to design and demonstrate a wavelength-tunable fiber laser for this telecommunications band. Wavelength-...
Grating Enables Tunable Fiber Laser for Telecom
Oct 1, 2003 — Today's fiber optic telecom systems use a different fixed-frequency semiconductor laser to transmit each channel into the optical fiber. If these individual lasers were tunable -- that is, capable of switching from one wavelength channel to another...
Mode-Locked Ring Laser Produces 274-fs Pulses
Oct 1, 2003 — Scientists at the University of Central Florida in Orlando have developed a "breathing mode" semiconductor laser with mode-locked, externally compressed 274-fs pulses. The approach promises semiconductor lasers capable of producing even shorter...
Feedback Stabilizes High-Power Diode Lasers
Sep 1, 2003 — High-power, broad-area semiconductor lasers exhibit spatial and temporal instabilities due to fundamental nonlinear interactions between the intense optical field and the semiconductor material. These interactions result in a broad spectral emission...
Fiber Laser Pumps Fiber Lasers for Telecommunications Applications
Jul 1, 2003 — A coalition of British and Russian telecom engineers has developed a fiber laser system that may boost performance and cut costs when substituted for the traditional diode laser transmitters in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks. The...
Standardization of Laser Diode Lifetime Testing
Jul 1, 2003 — Laser diodes are well-established in both telecom and commercial applications. Semiconductor laser sources emitting power in the milliwatt range are produced in millions. Besides other specific attributes, they are characterized by high efficiency,...
Filter Enables 23-Channel Laser
Apr 1, 2003 — Transmitters for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) consist of banks of lasers, with one laser for each channel. It would be nice if a single laser could produce a comb of frequencies exactly aligned with the channels. Researchers at Bell...
Gratings Offer New Breed of Tunable Laser
Apr 1, 2003 — Researchers worldwide are pursuing several approaches to building tunable lasers that will enable future telecom systems to be quickly reconfigured for maximum transmission efficiency. Some approaches involve changing the feedback frequency of the...
Multiwavelength Lasers Simplify WDM Networks and Applications
Mar 1, 2003 — Mode-locked lasers are common tools for producing short pulses in the time domain, including telecommunications applications at multigigahertz repetition frequencies that require tunability in the C-band. Now they also can work as multiwavelength...
