Widely wavelength tunable integrated semiconductor device and method for widely wavelenght tuning semiconductor devices

摘要

Alternative laser structures, which have potentially the same tuning performance as (S)SG-DBR and GCSR lasers, and a fabrication process which is similar to that of the (S)SG-DBR laser, are presented. The advantage of these structures is that the output power does not pass through a long passive region. <IMAGE>
