Abstract
Lasers play a crucial role in dense WDM systems, and so the characterization of their performance is critical [1]. Commercially, lasers are characterized by parameters such as: linewidth, typical static spectra, side-mode-suppression ratio, modulation response, slope efficiency and wavelength stability.
