Abstract :
Passive modelocking of a surface emitting diode laser is demonstrated using an extended cavity concept which permits the incorporation of a saturable Bragg reflector mirror into a device designed for large aperture operation as a high-power 980 nm InGaAs multiple quantum-well vertical cavity source.
