Abstract
Distributed feedback (DFB) laser parameters such as grating coupling coefficient, effective indices, facet reflectances, and the phases of facet reflectances have been determined using a method based on least-square fitting of theoretical spectra to measured, subthreshold DFB laser emission spectra. The only inputs needed are geometrical parameters such as length, grating period, and internal grating phase shifts. A larger number of devices have been successfully characterized, and consistent results have been obtained in both 1.3-/spl mu/m multi-quantum-well (MQW) DFB lasers with both facets as-cleaved, and in 1.55-/spl mu/m MQW DFB lasers with no, one, or two facets as-cleaved.
