Abstract :
Summary form only given. In this talk, advances in wide temperature DFB lasers will be reviewed. The principles for wide temperature range operation of a DFB laser will be addressed. Important issues such as maintaining singlemode operation across a wide temperature range, temperature sensitivity of threshold current and slope efficiency of a DFB laser, low distortion in a wide temperature range and reliability of wide temperature DFB lasers will be discussed.
