Abstract :
Presents results of tunable probe measurements of ultra-fast dynamics in AlGaAs diode laser amplifiers. The ue of gated upconversion has allowed the observation of subpicosecond gain depletion and recovery with pump-probe separations of up to 30 nm. The data show no sign of spectral hole burning and are consistent with the mechanism of dynamic carrier heating
