1300 nm超辐射发光二极管寿命测试

作为光纤陀螺用光源的超辐射发光二极管(SLD)随着工作时间的延续,其性能会发生退化。采用加速老化的实验方法来估算InGaAsP SLD管芯的工作寿命。分别在环境温度373 K和358 K下对5只SLD管芯进行加速老化,并通过对P-t曲线拟合来推算和估计管芯的老化速率和激活能。计算出了器件的激活能平均值约为0.82 eV,SLD管芯在室温下的工作寿命超过10~6 h,可以满足光纤陀螺用光源的寿命要求。对影响SLD管芯可靠性的因素以及管芯的退化机理进行了分析,为研制高可靠性的超辐射发光二极管提供了理论基础。

A double wavelength DFB laser with an identical active area for CWDM

A novel distribute feedback (DFB) laser which gave two different wavelengths under two distinct work conditions was fabricated. The laser consists of two Bragg gratings with different periods corresponding to wavelength spacing of 20 nm in an identical active area. When driving current was injected into one of the different sections separately, two different wavelengths at 1542.4 and 1562.5 nm were realized. The side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) of 45 dB or more both for the two Bragg wavelengths were achieved. The fabricating process of the laser was just the same as that of traditional DFB laser diode. This device can be potentially used in coarse wavelength division multiplexer (CWDM) as a promising light source and the technology idea can be used to enlarge the transmission capacity in metro area network (MAN).

Monolithic Integration of Electro-Absorption Modulators and DFB Lasers by Modified Double Stack Active Layer Approach

Monolithic electro-absorption modulated distributed-feedback(DFB) lasers are proposed and fabricated by using a modified double stack active layer.The 38mA threshold,9dB extinction ratio (from 0.5V to 3.0V),and about 5mW output power at the 100mA operation current are achieved.Compared with other reported results (only 1.5mW at the same operation current) of the traditional stack active structure,the proposed structure improves the output power of devices.

High Power 940 nm Al-free Active Region Laser Diodes and Bars with a Broad Waveguide

The 940 nm Al-free active region laser diodes and bars with a broad waveguide were designed and fabricated. The stuctures were grown by metal organic chemical vapour deposition. The devices show excellent performances. The maximum output power of 6.7 W in the 100 f^m broad-area laser diodes has been measured, and is 2. 5 times higher than that in the Al-containing active region laser diodes with a narrow waveguide and 1. 7 times higher than that in Al-free active region laser diodes with a narrow waveguide. The 19 % fill-factor laser diode bars emit 33 W, and they can operate at 15W with low degradation rates.

Influence of In0.2Ga0.8As strain-reducing layer on the active region of quantum dot superluminescent diodes

We have investigated the optical properties of asymmetric multiple layer stacked self-assembled InAs quantum dot with different interlayer. We found that asymmetric multiple stacked QD samples with In0.2Ga0.8As + GaAs interlayer can afford a 180nm flat spectral width with strong PL intensity compared to other samples at room temperature. We think this result is due to the introduction of In0.2Ga0.8As strain-reducing layer. Additionally, for the broad spectral width and the strong PL intensity, this structure can be a promising candidate for quantum-dot superluminescent diodes.

High efficiency, low vertical divergence angle 980nnn Al-free active region lasers with novel large optical cavity and asymmetrical cladding layers

980nm InGaAs/InGaAsP/AlGaAs strained quantum well lasers,vitta novel large optical cavity and asymmetrical claddings was fabricated bg MOCVD. Very high differential quantum efficiency elf 90% (1.15W/A) and low vertical divergence angle of 24 degrees at long cavity length were obtained for 100 mu m stripe lasers. The differential quantum efficiency is up to 94% (1.20) at cavity length of 500 mu m.

Broadly Tunable Grating-Coupled External Cavity Laser With Quantum-Dot Active Region

A broadly tunable and high-power grating-coupled external cavity laser with a tuning range of more than 200 nm and a similar to 200-mW maximum output power was realized, by utilizing a gain device with the chirped multiple quantum-dot (QD) active layers and bent waveguide structure. The chirped QD active medium, which consists of QD layers with InGaAs strain-reducing layers different in thickness, is beneficial to the broadening of the material gain spectrum. The bent waveguide structure and facet antireflection coating are both effective for the suppression of inner-cavity lasing under large injection current.
