- Abstract
- A novel self-pulsation regime is observed in multisection laser diodes which consist of a loss-coupled distributed-feedback (DFB) section, a phase control section, and gain sections, where 10-GHz self-pulsation due to compound cavity mode beating has been reported with the DFB section operated as a single-mode laser. When the DFB section is below threshold current, the devices give the self-pulsation in a very wide operating range. We attribute the pulsation to passive mode-locking and also confirm that this structure is applicable to 40-GHz operation. © 2006 IEEE.
