Abstract :
In recent years, laser diodes of high performance have been widely applied in long haul optical transmission of high speed signals. Electroabsorption modulated lasers (EML) are considered to be a promising component due to their low chirp property. We developed 2.5 Gbps EML modules using a specially designed microstrip line.
