EAM-integrated DFB laser modules with more than 40-GHz bandwidth

Electroabsorption modulator (EAM)-distributed feedback (DFB) modules with record-high bandwidth of 41 GHz have been developed. 40-Gb/s nonreturn to zero (NRZ) operation with 12-dB extinction ratio and -1.6-dBm average output power have been successfully achieved by optimizing the EAM length and detu...

Zusammenfassung:Electroabsorption modulator (EAM)-distributed feedback (DFB) modules with record-high bandwidth of 41 GHz have been developed. 40-Gb/s nonreturn to zero (NRZ) operation with 12-dB extinction ratio and -1.6-dBm average output power have been successfully achieved by optimizing the EAM length and detuning. A clearly opened eye diagram was maintained even after 80-km nonzero dispersion shifted fiber (NZ-DSF) transmission with dispersion compensation, 40-GHz short pulse trains with 6-ps pulsewidth have been also generated by sinusoidal electrical modulation.
