Abstract
A novel gain and index tailored (GIT) external cavity laser (ECL) is presented. The single frequency laser demonstrates high power operation in excess of 250 mW and shot noise limited relative intensity noise (RIN) at 100 mW. This laser source is an ideal source for intensity-modulated direct detection (IMDD) photonic links. Link budget analysis is completed based on measured RIN and optical power. The analysis demonstrates that there are significant radio frequency performance advantages to operating at higher optical power while maintaining low RIN.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1990, the International Journal of High Speed Electronics and Systems (IJHSES) has served graduate students and those in R&D, managerial and marketing positions by giving state-of-the-art data, and the latest research trends. Its main charter is to promote engineering education by advancing interdisciplinary science between electronics and systems and to explore high speed technology in photonics and electronics. IJHSES, a quarterly journal, continues to feature a broad coverage of topics relating to high speed or high performance devices, circuits and systems.
