Abstract

In summary, we have developed a wavelength-tunable duplex integrated light source with thermal drift compensators. Thermal-transient induced wavelength drift of the distributed Bragg reflector laser diodes (DBR-LDs) and thermal crosstalk between the DBR-LDs are effectively suppressed by using the integrated compensators
