A semiconductor laser (1) is known that is monolithically integrated on a substrate (2) and whose cavity (41) has a branched structure that is simply contiguous in a topological sense. The semiconductor laser (1) includes a plurality of regions (8-11) that enclose the cavity (41). According to the invention, the semiconductor laser (1) is operated as a mode-locked semiconductor laser, with an alternating current flowing through at least one region in addition to a direct current. The frequency of the alternating current corresponds to the reciprocal of the round-trip time or an integral multiple of this reciprocal of the light pulses generated by the alternating current in the semiconductor laser (1).

Le laser à semi-conducteur (1) est intégré de façon monolithique à un substrat (2) et possède une cavité (41) à structure ramifiée qui est simplement contigüe au sens topologique. Le laser à semi-conducteur (1) comprend plusieurs zones (8-11) qui entourent la cavité (41). D'après l'invention, le laser à semi-conducteur (1) fonctionne comme un laser à semi-conducteur à modes bloqués, et un courant alternatif passe dans, au moins, une zone en plus du courant continu. La fréquence du courant alternatif correspond à la réciproque du temps d'aller et retour ou à un multiple entier de cette réciproque des impulsions lumineuses produites par le courant alternatif dans le laser à semi-conducteur (1).
