Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor lasers, in particular to a preparation method for a discrete-mode semiconductor laser (DMLD) that realizes 980nm dynamic single-mode wavelength stability. Background technique [0002] 980nm semiconductor lasers are widely demanded and applied as the pump source of solid-state lasers and in the fields of fiber lasers, sensing, and medical treatment. However, with the continuous increase of temperature and operating current, the center wavelength of semiconductor lasers drifts. This is a big hurdle for pumping applications with small absorption bandwidths. Therefore, it is particularly urgent and crucial to ensure stable and effective pumping of solid-state lasers with narrow absorption bandwidths in the entire working range, and to improve the spectral characteristics of semiconductor lasers such as spectral purity and wavelength stability. [0003] Usually, the methods to achieve stable single-mode ...
