Abstract
A MQW-DBR laser with two active sections and low tuning efficiency has been developed. The device showed excellent lasing characteristics: a low threshold current of 10 mA, a high slope efficiency of 0.26 mW/mA, and a narrow linewidth of 280 kHz at P/sub out/=15 mW. A red-shift carrier-induced FM response was obtained by nonuniform current injection to two active sections. A flat FM response with wide bandwidth (>2 GHz) was confirmed. The linewidth broadening due to wavelength tuning was suppressed through the reduction of tuning efficiency. A continuous tuning range of 0.8 nm was observed while maintaining the linewidth below 4 MHz. >
