    Abstract

    An optical pulse injection locking technique is employed to generate shorter pulses from a passively modelocked quantum dot laser. The optical pulse injection locking enables the coherent addition of phase-locked longitudinal mode groups from two separate modelocked lasers without the use of stabilisation control loops, thus increasing the spectral bandwidth output resulting in optical pulses with shorter temporal duration.
