Abstract
Single-mode short optical pulse sources with very low chirping are of necessity in applications such as ultrahigh-speed optical-soliton communications and electro-optical measurements. The gain-coupled distributed feedback (GC-DFB) semiconductor laser which we have developed recently1 could be a candidate because of its dynamic optical cavity.7 Here, we report very low-chirp, single-mode oscillation of the GC-DFB laser operated under short-pulse generation conditions.
