Abstract :
Spectral characteristics of the super structure grating (SSG) distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) lasers under broad range wavelength tuning are discussed. SSG DBR lasers show good spectral characteristics with broad range wavelength tunability. Under the directly intensity modulated condition, stable single longitudinal mode oscillations are also obtained over the broad wavelength tuning range.<>
