Abstract :
We report on monolithically integrated lasers and receivers that are capable of simultaneously sending and receiving signals on several optical wavelengths. The integration scheme on InP assures a very stable optical channel spacing. An application of these components for a broadband fiber-to-the-home network is discussed
