Abstract

Continuous-wave passive Q-switched operation of multiple-contact AlGaAs laser diodes is described. Stable pulses having an energy of 300 pJ and a duration of 40 ps were obtained from 100 µm wide devices with an 800 Å thick active layer. The pulse repetition frequency was remarkably stable, having an RF linewidth of < 100 kHz.
