            Abstract : 
This work shows preliminary results from colliding-pulse mode-locked lasers in a GaAs/AlGaAs high-power material structure, where COMD limits the output power to 40 mW. Results of gain and absorption spectra, measured to model the mode-locking operation of the devices, are also presented.
