Self-Mode-Locking and Frequency-Modulated Comb Semiconductor Disk Lasers

Optically pumped semiconductor disk lasers—known as vertical-external-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VECSELs)—are promising devices for ultrashort pulse formation. For it, a “SESAM-free” approach labeled “self-mode-locking” received considerable attention in the past decade, relying solely on a chi...
