Abstract
We report a comparative study of carrier dynamics in semiconductor saturable absorber mirrors (SESAMs) containing InGaAs quantum wells and InGaAsN quantum wells (QWs). The static and dynamic reflectivity spectra were measured with a Fourier-transform-infrared-spectrometer and a pump-probe setup, respectively. The influence of rapid thermal annealing (RTA) on carrier dynamics was studied. Due to the reduction of defect states by RTA we observed an increase of the static reflectivity and an increase of the electron–hole recombination time. We demonstrate that nitrogen incorporation causes a decrease of the static reflectivity of the SESAMs, an increase of the modulation depth, and a reduction of the carriers’ recombination time. We also investigated the mode-locking behavior of the SESAMs in an Yb:YAG thin-disk laser oscillator. The highest pulse energies directly obtained from a laser oscillator under stable operation conditions were achieved when using a SESAM with InGaAsN quantum wells.
