Ultrafast absorption recovery dynamics of 1300 nm quantum dot saturable absorber mirrors
The author was responsible for the ideas which underpin the paper, and led the Imperial group; four co-authors (Lumb, Clarke, Harbord and Spencer) were part of his research group and were responsible for the design, growth and characterisation of the saturable absorber. The author's concept of tuning the operation to an excited state of the dot through control of the MBE growth to decrease the recovery time was a crucial step. The author was responsible for eliciting measurements at the Universities of Cardiff and St Andrews to complete the study. The author wrote the paper with input from other participants.
