  • Abstract
    Semiconductor lasers with a flat FM response are required for coherent FSK transmission systems. A complex-coupled λ/4-shifted DFB laser is described that gives a flat FM response from 10 kHz to I7 GHz at 15 mW, achieved by using the self-suppressing mechanism of the spatial hole-burning effect
