Abstract

By using a GaAs/GaAlAs multiple-quantum-well sample as a saturable absorber in an external resonator, we have passively mode locked a GaAs laser to obtain pulses as short as 1.6 psec, the shortest pulses ever observed to our knowledge from a mode-locked diode laser in a regulator pulse train.
