Title
Effect Of Carrier Heating On The Wavelength Chirp Of Ultrashort Laser Pulses In Semiconductor Traveling Wave Amplifiers
Abstract
The effect of carrier heating on wavelength chirp of ultrashort optical pulses in semiconductor traveling wave amplifiers is numerically studied. It is shown that the spectrum of the optical pulses is blue shifted when the duration of pulse tail is comparable to or shorter than the relaxation time of heated carriers. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data on an Al GaAs/GaAs traveling wave amplifier. © 1994 IEEE
