In this paper, we present our experimental results of a mode-locked GaAs-AlGaAs quantum well semiconductor laser. We used a multiple-mode interference (MMI) coupler, instead of a coupler composed of two separate waveguides. Such a MMI coupler is nothing but a multiple-mode waveguide (amplifier) in which the beating of different waveguide modes leads to different transverse wave field distributions at different propagation distances.
