Abstract

We report class-A dual-frequency oscillation at 1.55 μmin a vertical external cavity surface emitting laser with more than 100 mW optical power. The two orthogonal linear polarizations of different frequencies oscillate simultaneously as their nonlinear coupling is reduced below unity by spatially separating them inside the active medium. The spectral behavior of the radio frequency beatnote obtained by optically mixing two polarizations and the phase noise of the beatnote have been explored for different coupling strengths between the lasing modes.
