    摘要: A semiconductor light emitting element is disclosed, which is provided with a light emitting region having a diffraction grating formed by periodic corrugations, a modulation region having an external waveguide layer optically connected directly to the light emitting region and a pn junction separated from a pn junction of the light emitting region and a window region formed of a semiconductor having a larger energy gap than that of a light emitting layer of the light emitting region and extending from at least one end of the light emitting region and the external waveguide layer. The refractive index of the external waveguide is varied through utilization of the electrooptic effect so that the frequency or phase of light stably oscillating at a single wavelength is precisely controlled or modulated. In particular, when the window region is formed only outside the light emitting region, frequency modulation is carried out, and when the window region is formed at least outside the modulation region, phase modulation takes place.

    摘要: A semiconductor external modulator is disclosed in which the mode of polarization of incident light, the crystal plane of the substrate (the direction of application of an electrical field), the energy gap of the optical waveguide layer, and the direction of travel of light are determined so that, of variations in the real and imaginary parts of the refractive index of the optical waveguide layer which are caused by the application of the electric field to the semiconductor external optical modulator, the variation in the real part of the refractive index may be reduced to substantially zero.

    摘要: A semiconductor laser, which comprises a substrate of InP, an active layer, and two clad layers holding therebetween the active layer, and which is constructed so that the refractive index of the active layer may be larger than the refractive indexes of the two clad layers. In one of the two clad layers, the refractive index of a region adjacent to a radiation region in the active layer is larger than the refractive index of a region adjacent to a non-radiation region in the active layer. The refractive index of the other clad layer is equal to the refractive index of that region of said on clad layer adjoining the radiation region or the non-radiation region. The thickness and width of the radiation region of the active layer are selected so that the semiconductor laser may oscillate in the fundamental transverse mode. A buffer layer may be further provided between the active layer and one of the two clad layers.
