Abstract :
The effect of electrical (finite absorber response time) and optical (distant reflector) external effects on the performance of monolithic mode-locked lasers in a monolithically integrated environment is discussed and illustrated using numerical modeling. The relation of the findings to the recent experimental results is discussed, and some methods of reducing the feedback effects are assessed.
