Abstract
We have proposed a pulse compression method using an optical interferometer, which is effective for gain-switched pulses from multimode laser diodes. Features of the method were examined numerically. Using this method, a picosecond pulse from a gain-switched 830-nm Fabry-Perot laser diode was compressed from 30 to 22 ps.
