Abstract:
Topological parameters of a strip-geometry laser with passive mode-locking on the basis of an InGaAlAs/InGaAs/InP heterostructure are determined from the condition for the existence of one transverse mode in a strip waveguide. The strip width was 1.5 $\mu$m, the mesa etch depth was 1.32 $\mu$m, and the thickness of the dielectric layer was 0.36 $\mu$m.
