Abstract :
A single growth 1545 nm laser integrated with a distributed slot reflector is presented. The reflector consists of five slots etched into a ridge waveguide and provides a power reflectivity of 5%. The distributed reflector allows integration of the laser with a detector with a responsivity of up to 1.76 A/W.
