| It has been successfully investigated for the first time that strength of optical injection locking also depends on the size of semiconductor ring laser. Theoretical study for frequency response of optical injection locking semiconductor ring laser in the master slave configuration using direct, amplitude and phase modulation of master laser is discussed. In the unidirectional regime the locking range of semiconductor ring laser becomes wider when semiconductor ring laser with smaller size is used. Simulation results predict an incredible enhancement in the modulation bandwidth (> 500 GHz) of the slave semiconductor ring laser when used with smaller laser cavity length (50 μm) in the stable unidirectional regime. |
