  • Abstract
    We present a monolithic passively mode-locked 795nm GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well laser with enlarged vertical mode profile and a low duty-cycle cavity design, emitting 710fs long pulses at a peak power of 9.8W per facet. Semiconductor laser, mode-locked laser, coherent population trapping.
