Each of the first and second grating regions comprises a plurality of micro-grating structures. The grating period of the micro-grating structures in the first grating region is in accordance with the following mathematical formula:

Wherein, Λ is the length of grating period, λ is the wavelength of the laser light, neff is the equivalent refractive index of semiconductor waveguide, m=1, and o=2. The first grating region is a first-order grating region, and the second grating region is a second-order grating region, so as to form a hybrid grating structure in the grating layer.

摘要: Structures for response shaping in frequency and time domain, include an optical response shaper and/or a modulator device with multiple injection. The device comprises a resonator having an enclosed geometric structure, for example a ring or racetrack structure, at least two injecting optical waveguides approaching the resonator to define at least two coupling regions between the resonator and the injecting waveguides, and may define at least two Free Spectral Range states.
One or both of the coupling regions has a coupling coefficient selected for a predetermined frequency or time response, and the coupling coefficient or other device parameters may be variable, in some case in real time to render the response programmably variable.-

摘要: A method for producing a quantum cascade laser includes the steps of forming a laser structure including a mesa structure and a buried region embedding the mesa structure; forming a mask on the laser structure, the mask including a first pattern that defines a λ/4 period distribution Bragg reflector structure and a second pattern that defines a 3λ/4 period distribution Bragg reflector structure; and forming a first distribution Bragg reflector structure, a second distribution Bragg reflector structure, and a semiconductor waveguide structure by dry-etching the laser structure through the mask, the semiconductor waveguide structure including the mesa structure that has first and second end facets. The first distribution Bragg reflector structure is optically coupled to the first end facet. The second distribution Bragg reflector structure is optically coupled to the second end facet. Here, λ denotes a value of an oscillation wavelength of the quantum cascade laser in vacuum.

摘要: A parallel cavity tunable laser generally includes a semiconductor laser body defining a plurality of parallel laser cavities with a common output. Each of the parallel laser cavities is configured to be driven independently to generate laser light at a wavelength within a different respective wavelength range. The wavelength of the light generated in each of the laser cavities may be tuned, in response to a temperature change, to a channel wavelength within the respective wavelength range. The laser light generated in each selected one of the laser cavities is emitted from the common output at a front facet of the laser body. By selectively generating light in one or more of the laser cavities, one or more channel wavelengths may be selected for lasing and transmission.
