High-frequency constricted mesa lasers

InGaAsP cw constricted mesa lasers at 1.3 μm are described which have a small-signal 3-dB bandwidth of 20 GHz at −70 °C. Large-signal pseudorandom modulation at 8 Gb/s resulted in 100% optical modulation. The lasers were gain switched at 12 GHz with 100% optical modulation.
