Analytical and Experimental Methods for Studying Novel Cavity Geometries in Quantum Dot Mode Locked Lasers
Abstract
dc:description.abstractIn this dissertation, the insights provided using analytical methods to predict and refine Quantum Dot Mode Locked Lasers (QDMLLs) for use in multiple applications are explored. Experimental investigation guided by theory greatly reduces the number of iterations to find solutions to technical problems. The fitness of the theory and methods used for prediction of QDMLL operation are demonstrated. Experimental cases for QDMLLs in high temperature and radioactive environments are presented. Further avenues of pursuit for achieving high repetition rates in optical sources are also proposed.
