Evaluation of 4-Gbit/s optical fiber transmission distance with direct and external modulation

Transmission characteristics for a recently modulated measured distributed-feedbacked (DFB) laser and an externally modulated DFB laser using a Ti:LiNbO/sub 3/, Mach-Zehnder modulator at 4 Gb/s are discussed. The transmission characteristics are estimated by an advanced eye-pattern analysis method. The maximum measured fiber dispersion with a directly modulated laser is 100 to 140 ps/nm when the chirp power penalty is 1 dB. However, for external modulation, there is no power penalty after transmission over a 2220-ps/nm dispersive fiber. This confirms that external modulation has superior transmission characteristics. The modulation scheme for 4-Gb/s systems in terms of these results is discussed.<>     

Highly sensitive 565 Mb/s DPSK heterodyne transmission experiment using direct current modulation of a DFB laser transmitter

A comparison between external phase modulation and phase modulation obtained through direct current modulation of a multiquantum-well distributed feedback (DFB) transmitter is reported for a sensitive 565 Mb/s differential-phase-shift-keying (DPSK) heterodyne transmission experiment. A limited sensitivity penalty for direct phase modulation is expected from the driving current pulse shape, the transmitter FM response and the receiver characteristics. The experimentally observed 0.5 dB penalty is in agreement with theory and highlights the potential of direct DPSK modulation as compared to both standard DPSK and continuous-phase frequency shift keying (CPFSK) schemes.<>

DFB laser spectra obtained by low-frequency current dither

The temporal behavior of the spectra of distributed-feedback (DFB) lasers is studied under high-bit-rate (2 Gb/s) modulation. The optical spectra are obtained by dithering the off-state laser bias current with a low-frequency (1 kHz) low-amplitude (2 mA) current. It is found that some lasers have side modes that emit only during the first ~125 ps of the pulse. During this short time interval, the intensity of the side mode emission is at least 10 dB stronger than that obtained from time averaged spectra. This technique is useful in understanding the high-speed dynamics of rapidly modulated DFB spectra

Optical feedback on linearity performance of 1.3-μm DFB andmultimode lasers under microwave intensity modulation

Under large signal modulation and quantitatively controlled optical feedback (from about -50 dB to -25 dB, from the end of ~2-m pigtails), the linearity performance of both a 1.3-μm distributed-feedback (DFB) and a multimode laser is examined. Under proper bias levels and modulation frequencies, both lasers exhibit good linearity even with strong optical feedback. The DFB laser exhibits good linearity because of its coherence reduction, resulting from modulation-induced frequency chirping     

InAs-InAlGaAs quantum dot DFB lasers based on InP [001]

The InAs-InAlGaAs quantum dot (QD) lasers with the InAlGaAs-InAlAs material system were fabricated on distributed feedback (DFB) grating structures on InP [001]. The single-mode operation of InAs-InAlGaAs QD DFB lasers in continuous-wave mode was successfully achieved at the emission wavelength of 1.564 /spl mu/m at room temperature. This is the first observation on the InP-based QD lasers operating around the emission wavelength window of 1.55 /spl mu/m. The threshold current density of the InAs-InAlGaAs QD DFB laser with a cavity length of 1 mm and a ridge width of 3 /spl mu/m, in which one of the cleaved facets was coated with 95% high-reflection, was 1.23 kA/cm/sup 2/ (176 A/cm/sup 2/ for single QD layer). The sidemode suppression ratio value of the QD DFB laser was as high as 42 dB at the driving current of 100 mA.
