Abstract
10 Gbps data transmission was demonstrated with electroabsorption modulators integrated with a 4-channel wavelength division multiplexing transmitter composed of distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) lasers. A selective area growth technique was employed for the control of bandgap energy in the gain, modulator and passive sections. Then the laser and modulator stripes were fabricated by a buried heterostructure process. The DBR lasers showed uniform threshold currents between 5 and 10 mA, while the slope efficiency was around 0.11 W A-1. By controlling the DBR currents, a 4-channel transmitter was achieved for the channel spacing of 100 GHz (0.8 nm). The electroabsorption modulator showed clear eye openings under 10 Gbps non-return-to-zero modulation. It allowed 10 Gbps error-free operation over a 25 km long single-mode fiber. © 2008 IOP Publishing Ltd.
