Abstract :
0.81 ¿m-band AlGaAs/GaAs double-channel planar buried-heterostructure laser diodes with large optical cavity have been developed as light sources for use in analogue optical fibre communication systems. Linear light-output/current characteristics and a single-longitudinal-mode spectrum at a modulation frequency f = 100 MHz with modulation index m = 0.9 have been attained.
