We report a wavelength tunable electro-absorption modulated DBR laser based on a combined method of SAG and QWI. The threshold current is 37mA and the output power at 100mA gain current is 3.5mW. When coupled to a single-mode fiber with a coupling efficiency of 15% ,more than a 20dB extinction ratio is observed over the change of EAM bias from 0 to -2V. The 4.4nm continuous wavelength tuning range covers 6 channels on a 100GHz grid for WDM telecommunications.
采用超低压(22×102Pa)选择区域生长(selective area growth,SAG)金属有机化学气相沉积(metal_organic chemical vapor deposition,MOCVD)技术成功制备了InGaAsP/InGaAsP级联电吸收调制器(electro absorption modulator,EAM)与分布反馈激光器(distributed feed backlaser,DFB)单片集成光源的新型光电器件.实验结果表明,采用该技术制备的器件具有良好的性能:激射阈值为19mA,出光功率为4·5mW,在5V的驱动电压下达到了20dB的消光比,器件3dB响应带宽达到了10GHz以上.应用这种新型器件,利用级联EAM的光开关效应,获得了重复率为10GHz、半高宽(full_width_at_half_maximum,FWHM)为13·7ps的超短光脉冲.
The two-section tunable ridge waveguide distribu ted Bragg reflector (DBR) laser fabricated by the selective intermixing of an InGaAsP-InGaAsP quantum well structure is presented.The threshold current of the laser is 51mA.The tunable range of the laser is 4.6nm,and the side mode suppress ion ratio (SMSR) is 40dB.
Experiment on quantum well intermixing (QWI) of InGaAsP QWs by impurity free vacancy diffusion (IFVD) using SiO 2 encapsulation is reported.A maximum band gap wavelength blue shift as large as 200nm is realized.Furthermore,an FP laser blue shifted 21nm by QWI is fabricated with characteristics comparable with the as grown one.
