Abstract
For wavelengths deviating from 1µm, a SESAM can be limited by the underlying DBR design. Using substrate-removal, it is possible to isolate the active region and circumvent restrictions due to a DBR. Only lately, the dynamics of SESAM mode-locked VECSELs, producing different multi-pulse emission, was investigated by several groups and motivated numerical modeling of mode-locking VECSELs. We present the fabrication, characterization and mode-locking of our red-emitting AlGaInP active regions. This includes a comparison of mode-locking dynamics of DBR-free saturable absorber and SESAM-based mode-locking approaches in the red spectral range and the nonlinear reflectivity of a set of GaInP QW SESAMs.
