摘要
Ultrafast refractive index dynamics in AlGaAs diode laser amplifiers were studied using 440 fs optical pulses. Refractive index changes consistent with a free carrier heating model proposed to explain earlier studies of gain dynamics in diode lasers are exhibited. We also observe an apparently instantaneous refractive index change that corresponds to an n2 perpendicular-to of -5 X 10(-12) cm2/W.
