Parametric results of the AlGaInAs quantum-well saturable absorber for use as a passive Q-switch

Bender, Daniel A.; Cederberg, Jeffrey G.; Hebner, Gregory A.

We have successfully designed, built and operated a microlaser based on a AlGaInAs multiple quantum well (MQW) semiconductor saturable absorber (SESA). Optical characterization of the semiconductor absorber, as well as, the microlaser output is presented. © 2010 Ontical Society of America.
