Improved Sampled Grating DBR Widely-Tunable 1.55z Micrometer Lasers
Abstract
The objective of this program is to develop a widely tunable semiconductor laser diode with an integrated wavelength monitor. During this period improvements in the device tuning range and stability have been obtained by using buried-heterostructures, and initial results with miniature, monolithic wavelength monitors have demonstrated good wavelength readout, but with some remaining problems. Techniques to solve these problems as well as alternative designs are under study. The first generation devices have also been packaged, and solvable problems were identified.
