Abstract

A tunable distributed feedback (DFB) laser packaging platform has been developed for military avionic application. The packaged tunable DFB laser transmitter has successfully undergone 500 temperature cycles of initial testing based on MIL-STD-883 Method 1010. It has a wide operating temperature range of -55 degC to 95 degC with a single mode fiber coupled output power of >1 mW. The transmitter can be directly modulated at 2.5 Gb/s and has 4-channel tunability at 100 GHz channel spacing.
