Abstract
Passively mode-locked quantum dot (QD) lasers present advantageous properties including fast carrier dyn amics and large saturation energies that make them promising candidates for short pulse high peak power generation. For high gain injection currents, however, pulse leading-edge instabilities (LEI) and trailing-edge (TEI) instabilites ultimately limit the maximum achievable pulse peak power and average power while preserving excellent mode-locking (ML) stability.
