ABSTRACT:
A distributed feedback (DFB) laser for use in a bipolar field effect transistor laser (known as a BICFET laser) produces a single mode, stable, tunable laser. The single mode, stable, tunable characteristics of the laser are achieved by modifying the structure and operation of a previously disclosed high speed integrated heterojunction field-effect transistor laser by the inclusion of a grating in the n+ active regions to create a periodic refractive index profile. Independent operation of two n+ quantum wells provides frequency tuning through simultaneous and independent control of the mode spacing or mode frequency and the distributed feedback frequency.
