  • Abstract
    1.56-1.61 μm range modulator-integrated distributed-feedback laser diodes (DFB/MODs) of different wavelengths are successfully demonstrated for applications in 1.58 μm band WDM systems. They were fabricated on a single wafer by using narrow-stripe selective MOVPE with a novel growth-time-modulation (GTM) technique. Uniform and high-performance characteristics such as a threshold current less than 5 mA and an extinction ratio larger than 16 dB at -2 V were achieved
