Semiconductor light-emitting device

摘要

In a semiconductor light-emitting device including an MQW diffraction grating structure mainly used in a gain-coupled DFB laser, the ratio of the gain coupling coefficient to the index coupling coefficient is increased by making each well layer in MQW-A thicker than that in MQW-B. Each well layer and each barrier layer in the MQW structure are made of different compositions of GaInAsP. This implements a semiconductor light-emitting device with high wavelength stability, which does not induce any mode hop even during modulation with high output power or even when external optical feedback is present.
