Abstract
The first passive Q-switched operation is reported of an InGaAs-AlGaInAs diode laser with a frequency repetition ranging from 1 to 2.5 GHz at the emitting wavelength of 1.58 μm. This material is important as a thermally stable alternative to InGaAsP based laser systems operating around 1.5 μm.
