Abstract
This paper presents a tunable single mode Dual-mirror Slotted Fabry Pérot (DSFP) laser with near 60 nm tuning of the wavelengths between 1530 nm to 1590 nm. The laser modes measured demonstrate high SMSR lasing exceeding 30 dB with SMSRs as high as 45 dB. The electrical tuning of the laser facilitates more than 20 nm of continuous 50 GHz channel spacing between 1545 nm and 1565 nm. Additional thermal tuning facilitates more than 40 nm of continuous 50 GHz channel spacing between 1540 nm and 1580 nm.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics is dedicated to the publication of manuscripts reporting novel experimental or theoretical results in the broad field of the science and technology of quantum electronics. The Journal comprises original contributions, both regular papers and letters, describing significant advances in the understanding of quantum electronics phenomena or the demonstration of new devices, systems, or applications. Manuscripts reporting new developments in systems and applications must emphasize quantum electronics principles or devices. The scope of JQE encompasses the generation, propagation, detection, and application of coherent electromagnetic radiation having wavelengths below one millimeter (i.e., in the submillimeter, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, etc., regions). Whether the focus of a manuscript is a quantum-electronic device or phenomenon, the critical factor in the editorial review of a manuscript is the potential impact of the results presented on continuing research in the field or on advancing the technological base of quantum electronics.
