ABSTRACT:
A laser diode structure including compensating elements for improving the linearity of the laser response, of particular concern for broadband analog applications. The compensation comprises voltage-dependent elements which are incorporated to correct for the presence of parasitic, voltage-dependent resistive and capacitive elements associated with the laser diode junction. These parasitic elements have been found to be a cause of the laser's nonlinear L-I relationship. By careful choice of the bias voltages supplied to the compensating elements, the nonlinearity due to the presence of the parasitic elements may be minimized. In particular, a combination of a voltage-dependent resistance and voltage-dependent capacitance may be utilized.
