Abstract
This work conducted a comparative study on DFB lasers based on
AlGaInAs/InP heterostructures, and comparatively studied the effects of
different trench shapes and different cavity lengths on the laser output
characteristics. Based on the vertical trench structure, we obtained a
laser output of 90mW at 25°C, Compared with the trenchless laser, the
output power was increased to 3.6 times the original, and the threshold
current was only 4mA. It allows 8.5nm wavelength tunability within the
temperature range of 5-85℃, and still has an edge mode suppression ratio
of >45dB at 85℃. After the chip is packaged in a butterfly
shape, the relative intensity noise in the 0-40 GHz frequency range is
lower than -162.8dB/Hz at the working current of 300mA.
