Zusammenfassung:Uncooled operation of long-reach high performance C-band 10 Gb/s of optical modulator modules is presented. Modules consisting of a distributed feedback laser and a chip with a monolithically integrated electroabsorption modulator and semiconductor optical amplifier based on multiquantum-well structures of both InGaAsP-InP and InGaAlAs-InP material systems are presented. Dispersion penalty of 1 dB over 94-km transmission, output power above 0 dBm, and low extinction ratio variation are demonstrated over an 80/spl deg/C temperature range. A simple analysis of the quantum confined Stark effect is employed to explain the temperature-dc bias voltage dependence.
