An optical apparatus comprising at least two optoelectronic devices fabricated on the same substrate and in thermal communication with each other. A first optoelectronic device is configured to generate optical signals and provide them to an optical system via an optical output port. A second optoelectronic device is configured to provide heat compensation for the first optoelectronic device. An electrical circuitry provides first electrical signals to the first optoelectronic device and second electrical signals to the second optoelectronic device. The electrical circuitry is configured to adjust at least the second electrical signals to controllably adjust a temperature of the first optoelectronic device.
