ABSTRACT:
A single transverse mode semiconductor laser diode source is designed for employment in an optical transmission link comprising a transmitter module and a receiver module operable under uncooled conditions, i.e., without the need of costly cooling equipment, such as thermoelectric coolers. The optical transmission system includes both the semiconductor laser diode source and the optical receiver module that are both designed to operate uncooled under high frequencies (e.g., GHz range) over a wide temperature range without significant changes in signal bandwidth and at temperatures in excess of 125.degree. C.
