Abstract
By incorporating a lumped-element impedance-matching network on the
laser diode carrier/submount, the signal injection efficiency of electro-absorption
modulator integrated lasers is significantly improved through the reduction
of input return loss. Over a frequency range spanning from 5.8 to 10 GHz,
an improvement of approximately 12% to 37% in signal injection efficiency
is observed. To avoid increasing the component-count, a unique implementation
of the lumped element impedance matching network is proposed.
