ABSTRACT:
A method of driving an ultrashort pulse and ultrahigh power laser diode device having a simple composition and a simple structure is provided. In the method of driving a laser diode device, light is injected from a light injection means into a laser diode device driven by a pulse current having a value 10 or more times as large as a value of a threshold current.
