  • Abstract
    Using an AlGaAs-GaAs waveguide structure with a six-stack InAs-InGaAs "dots-in-a-well" (DWELL) gain region having an aggregate dot density of approximately 8*10/sup 11/ cm/sup -2/, an optical gain of 18 dB at 1300 nm has been obtained in a 2.4-mm-long amplifier at 100-mA pump current. The optical bandwidth is 50 nm, and the output saturation power is 9 dBm. The dependence of the amplifier parameters on the pump current and the gain recovery dynamics has also been studied.
