  • Abstract
    Distributed feedback lasers with third-order surface gratings obtained by lateral corrugations of the ridge waveguide have been fabricated using low-cost nanoimprint lithography. The lasers, emitting in the 980 nm wavelength range exhibited stable single-longitudinal-mode operation with side-mode suppression ratios up to 50 dB.
