  • Abstract
    Analysis of second and third order intermodulation distortion characteristics of semiconductor DFB lasers is, for the first time, performed, including dynamic longitudinal spatial hole burning (LSHB) effect. We have shown theoretically that the third order intermodulation distortion can be lower than the calculated curve without LSHB effect, which is confirmed with experiments.<>
