Abstract

The amplification of picosecond optical pulses in mid-infrared semiconductor lasers was studied using a theoretical model. The effects of gain dispersion, ultrafast nonlinear refraction and short carrier relaxation on characteristics of amplified pulse in time and frequency domains were analyzed. Gain dispersion was found to increase by fast carrier relaxations, short pulse widths and high pulse energy.
