The effect of coherent single frequency injection on two-section semiconductor lasers is studied numerically using a model based on a set of delay differential equations. The existence of bistability between different continuous-wave and nonstationary regimes of operation is demonstrated in the case of sufficiently large linewidth enhancement factors.

We observed tunable characteristics of optical frequency combs (OFCs) generated from InGaAs/GaAs double quantum wells (DQWs) asymmetric waveguide two-section mode-locked lasers (TS-MLLs). This involves an asymmetric waveguide mode-locked semiconductor laser (AWML-SL) operating at a center wavelength of net modal gain of approximately 1.06 µm, which indicates a stable pulse shape, with the power-current(P-I) characteristic curve revealing a small difference between forward and reverse drive currents in the gain region.

Article Synopsis
- Heterodyne detection using interband cascade lasers (ICL) has been widely applied but is often limited by the use of bulky hardware.
- This study explores a compact integrated ICL platform that utilizes a two-section design: a short section for modulation and a long section as a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA).
- The integration includes a racetrack cavity to generate a single-mode reference, allowing for effective heterodyne detection by coupling the reference field into the SOA and observing the beating signal on the integrated detector.

A novel high-speed directly modulated two-section distributed-feedback (TS-DFB) semiconductor laser based on the detuned-loading effect is proposed and simulated. A grating structure is designed by the reconstruction-equivalent-chirp (REC) technique. A π phase shift is introduced into the reflection grating, which can provide a narrow-band reflection region with a sharp falling slope on both sides of the reflection spectrum, thus enhancing the detuned-loading effect.

A highly integrated multi-mode multi-band (MMMB) power amplifier module (PAM) using hybrid bulk complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), gallium arsenide (GaAs) heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT), and silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technologies for low band (LB, 824-915 MHz) and high band (HB, 1710-1980 MHz) is proposed. The hybrid MMMB PAM integrates a bulk CMOS controller die, a GaAs HBT power amplifier (PA) die and a SOI switch die on a six-layer laminate. To simultaneously obtain both highly efficient and highly linear characteristics over a wide range of input power levels, a parallel dual-chain PA strategy has been adopted to provide vary bias current and gain for low-power mode (LPM) and high-power mode (HPM) operation.
