Abstract :
Continuous frequency control from 5 to 10 GHz of an optical oscillator, can be induced in a single cavity DFB-MQW laser by simple change the laser bias current using the injection locking mechanism. This system is very attractive for optical communications, namely for clock recovery in high bit rate optical transmission systems.
