Abstract
In this paper, optical extinction ratio for various injection locking parameters (detuning and power) is characterized, showing that it varies with the locking parameters. Conditions where an extinction ratio of > 8.2 dB (SONET standards) is possible are observed, together with a flat frequency response and greatly enhanced resonance frequency. CW light-current (LI) characteristics are also investigated.
