ABSTRACT:
Arrayed DBR (Distributed Bragg Reflector) laser shows a problem that spectrum purity is deteriorated when a current is flowed in a semiconductor optical amplifier for attaining a sufficient optical output. In addition, the arrayed waveguide grating laser shows a problem that the spectrum purity is deteriorated by leakage of light. An output end of each of the laser channels is provided with a gate (a core) that can be controlled through bias application. The gate has a function for amplifying light when the laser channels are operated and for absorbing light when the laser channels are not operated.
