Abstract :
The high frequency properties of three-quantum well GaInNAs/GaAs lasers emitting at 1.35 μm have been investigated. A relaxation frequency of 7.4 GHz and a 9.7 GHz small signal bandwidth are reported for this material system, showing potential for high-bit rate (10 Gbit/s) direct modulation.
