摘要
We report recent device characterization results for a fully packaged widely tunable digital supermode (DS) distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) laser which has been monolithically integrated with a semiconductor optical amplifier. This new device gives all of the wide tunability and high side-mode suppression ratio performance previously reported for the DS-DBR laser with the added feature of output powers in excess of 14 dBm in fiber. In addition to output power and basic tuning behavior, we report on linewidth and relative intensity noise measurements for this device in order to investigate the noise characteristics of this laser.
