Thin film CdTe and CuInSe/sub 2/based solar cells have reported efficiencies of over 15%
and 17% respectively for small area laboratory devices and over 10% for prototype modules …

Surface normal optoelectronic devices operating at long wavelengths (≳ 1.3 μm), require
distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) with a practical number (≤ 50) of mirror layers. This …

Summary form only given. With modulation bandwidth of 10-15 GHz, vertical-cavity surface-
emitting lasers (VCSELs) have become a suitable choice for optical interconnects. However …

An analytical solution to the problem of nondegenerate four wave mixing in a semiconductor
optical amplifier emphasizing operation with short optical pulses is described. Calculated …

The saturation behavior of InGaAsP optical amplifiers is studied for input pulsewidths of 15
ps and 150 fs. The measured output saturation energies are 150 and 40 fJ, respectively. A …

We demonstrate an undoped 20 1/2 pair AlAsSb/GaAsSb distributed Bragg reflector (DBR)
grown lattice matched to an InP substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. Reflectivity …

We analyze the effect of nonlinear loss on four-wave mixing FWM conversion efficiency.
Maximum conversion efficiency is geometry independent and equal to e 2(3)/Im (3) 2 when …

A new type of ultrafast all optical switch based on a Mach–Zehnder interferometer is
demonstrated with a 10 ps switching window which requires only 0.65 pJ of control pulse …

During the last decade the problems of carrier transport and emission dynamics in
semiconductor lasers have been areas of active research. In this context the gain recovery …

The injection of an optical signal into a semiconductor laser biased near or above the lasing
threshold modifies the coupling between the free carriers and the intracavity field. The …
