摘要
This paper describes fabrication and characteristics of GaAlAs/GaAs wavelength tunable distributed-feedback (DFB) semiconductor lasers with linearly chirped grating. In a two-section device, a single-mode quasi-continuous tuning range of 2.2 nm at around 868 nm has been achieved. This resulted mainly from the chirped grating structure effect rather than-the free carrier plasma effect or the thermal tuning. A comparison of the two-section DFB laser with a conventional uniform grating has also been carried out.
