Amplifier Modulation for Low-Chirp From a Monolithic Strained-Layer MQW InGaAsP/InP Distributed-Feedback-Laser/Tappered Amplifier

Although electroabsorption modulators integrated with distributed feedback(DFB)' lasers can produce low—chirp high—speed modulated output,they have the disadvantages of requiring complicated selective growth and producing only modest output power.Integrated optical amplifie...
