Abstract

We developed the highly reliable FBT (Full Band Tunable) DFB laser module by applying adhesive bonding technology to internal micro optical components, which enabled the flexible module design to realize higher optical output power with lower power consumption. The reliability necessary for telecommunication WDM(Wavelength Division Multiplexing) application has been tested and confirmed through detailed analysis on outgas from the cured adhesive as well as the reliability test on the assembled modules.
