Abstract

Distributed-Bragg-reflector (DBR) laser diodes (LDs) look attractive for frequency modulation (FM) light sources.1 Nevertheless, they suffer from limitation of the — 3-dB cutoff frequency when the phase section is modulated by carrier injection.2 Taking into account high index variations measured on a superlattice (SL) modulator when it is reverse biased,3 we realized a high-frequency voltage-controlled FM source with a butt-jointed intracavity SL modulator in a multiple-quantum-well (MQW) DBR laser.
