Abstract
Dynamic characteristics are clarified for a laser diode integrated with a spot-size converter coupled to a silica planar lightwave circuit. The laser was developed with a butt-jointed selectively grown spot-size converter. A maximum coupling efficiency of -0.74 dB was achieved. Bit error rate performances are estimated to clarify the allowable reflection when optical feedback from the fibre output end occurs
