Abstract

A continuous wavelength tuning range of 5.4 nm is obtained for a three-section DBR (distributed Bragg reflector) laser by applying one control current in both forward and reverse bias directions. In the reverse direction no significant linewidth broadening is seen due to the absence of injection-recombination shot noise, and a linewidth of less than 3 MHz is obtained over a wavelength span of 1.8 nm. The minimum linewidth observed is 580 kHZ. >
