Abstract

Q-switching has been recognized as one of the most useful methods of generating high-power picosecond optical pulses from semiconductor laser diodes.1,2 To achieve Q-switching, multicontact lasers are widely used because of the ease of fabrication of the gain and absorber sections on the same chip, and peak powers of over 10 W have been achieved in a three-contact laser.3
