Abstract
Static and dynamic characteristics of 1.55- mu m distributed-feedback (DFB) lasers with longitudinal nonuniformity in optical intensity and carrier density are discussed. The nonuniformity is manifested in soft light-current threshold and varying differential quantum efficiency, blue-shifted static tuning, and free-carrier induced FM response.<>
