In a laser diode element including a front facet, a rear facet, a laser cavity formed between the front the rear facets and which has a predetermined length L, coating layers coated on the front facet to provide a reflectivity smaller than 5%, and an active layer and a uniform grating having regular corrugation formed in the direction of the laser cavity and which are coupled to each other at a predetermined coupling constant K, the laser diode element is specified by a product of the predetermined coupling constant and the predetermined length L and falling within a range between 0.4 and 1.0, both inclusive.
摘要:
A distributed feedback laser device comprises an optical waveguide having one end facet serving as a beam emission surface and the other end facet serving as a reflection surface, an active layer formed between the beam emission surface and the reflection surface, and a diffraction grating formed so as to extend along the active layer in the optical waveguide. The active layer has a first region located nearer to the beam emission surface than to the reflection surface and a second region located nearer to the reflection surface than to the beam emission surface. The first region is narrower in width than the second region. The diffraction grating has first and second portions located along the first and the second regions, respectively. The first portion is longer in pitch than the second portion.
摘要:
A dopant such as Si is introduced to recombination layers 2. The Si concentration is about 1×1017 to 5×1018 cm−3. Thus, a carrier lifetime in the recombination layers 2 may be reduced to relatively increase a leakage current flowing the recombination layers 2 while relatively reducing a leakage current flowing channels 3.

摘要:
A semiconductor distributed feedback laser emitting device has upper electrodes arranged in a longitudinal direction of an oscillator for supplying current to the oscillator, and a separating electrode is provided between the upper electrodes for making the distribution of an electric field strength in the longitudinal direction uniform by changing the current density in the separating electrode with respect to the current density in the upper electrodes, thereby improving a second intermodulation distortion.
摘要:
A distributed-feedback laser has a diffractive grating, an optical waveguide layer, and an active region. The optical waveguide layer has equivalent refractive indexes larger towards cavity end facets and smaller towards a device center portion along a cavity. The active region containing the optical waveguide layer has widths wider towards the cavity end facets and narrower towards the device center portion along the cavity. The optical waveguide layer has a uniform electric intensity distribution along the cavity to improve the linearity of current versus optical output characteristics. In another arrangement, the optical waveguide layer formed on the diffractive grating has in its compositions longer wavelengths towards the cavity end facets and shorter wavelengths towards the cavity center portion along the cavity, whereby the optical waveguide layer has a uniform optical intensity distribution along the cavity to improve the linearity of current versus optical output characteristics. The distributed-feedback laser provided is with improved analog modulation distortion characteristics.
