Abstract :
Subharmonic synchronous mode-locking (SSML) has been shown to be a very attractive scheme for achieving high repetition rate optical pulses at mm-wave frequencies, and beyond. In this paper, we report the dependence of the injected signal wavelength on the performance of SSML lasers around its lasing wavelengths. In particular, the effect of coherent interaction will be addressed
