Abstract:
Using red and near infra-red emitting quantum well and quantum dot based devices I have modelled the nearfield and farfield intensities and distribution in various waveguide structures. I compared the effect of various factors on the power density at catastrophic damage and found the greatest effect from the current pulse length and dot or well nature of the active region, for the first time in the AlGaInP material system. At short pulse length the quantum dot devices achieved a power density of 17 MW/cm<super>2</super> compared to 14 MW/cm<super>2</super> for quantum well lasers, and then pro

The Paladin FEL experiment is shown to exhibit clear and dramatic effects governed by the electron beam velocity distribution for the first time. The FEL integral equation is used to show that there is significant broadening of the gain spectrum due to the Gaussian velocity distribution, and also shows a plateau in the gain evolution along the undulator due to a triangular-shaped velocity distribution. The gain spectra and power evolution from simple, single- mode simulations are compared to the ELF experiments. The microwave power evolution along the undulator is compared as well for both the

Because of the strong non-linear effects introduced into the resonator cavity by the frequency doubler, the behaviour of the laser can be significantly altered.

At starting, electrical motors require large power and current. This may not be a problem in a large electrical system but it may be very severe for a limited power source like a solar array. If a direct approach is taken the array rating must be 5-6 times the motor rating in order to start the motor and its high inertia high friction load. Batteries have been used to store energy and supply that energy for starting. Batteries need maintenance and their low efficiency is a problem too.

Abstract:
In this thesis we explore the wide parameter space of thulium doped silica fibre lasers,looking at various techniques for the control of operating wavelength and bandwidth as well as transverse beam profile. We demonstrate the extremely broad tunability of thulium fibre sources. Through various device architectures we show wavelength coverage over a 450nm wavelength range from 1660nm to 2115nm. With a simple external cavity containing an electronically controllable acousto-optic tunable filter we construct a wavelength agile tunable fibre source. This source demonstrates rapid wavelength selec
