  • Abstract
    Low threshold (Ith≃20 mA) 1.3 μm GaInAsP p-substrate buried crescent lasers with output powers in excess of 30 mW/facet have been modulated into the X-band at 24°C. The chip capacitance deduced from scattering parameter (S 11) measurements was as low as 3 pF. A 3 dB direct modulation bandwidth of ~11.5 GHz has been observed at a bias current equal to 5 Ith
