Abstract
Gain-switched distributed feedback laser diodes (GS-DFB-LD) with high repetition bit rate have large frequency chirp. Conventionally, the F–P spectrum filter and normal dispersion fiber were used to eliminate chirp in GS-DFB-LD pulse sources. In this paper, a new method for eliminating chirp of high repetition pulses generated from DFB laser diodes is proposed. The use of a linearly chirped fiber grating for chirp elimination is discussed theoretically and numerically. A new apodized coupling profile function for the grating, which we call it the inverse Gaussian, is given. Its characteristics are analyzed and compared with other profiles. The numerical results are in agreement with the theoretical analysis.
