Abstract

Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Instruments & Instrumentation Physical Sciences Physics Physics, Applied Science & Technology Technology
We report on the design and fabrication of a novel wideband superluminescent diode (SLD) based on InGaAs/GaAs quantum-dot structure. In this device, we monolithically integrate a photon absorber section to suppress lasing action and optical feedback oscillation. The fabricated SLDs produce a close-to-Gaussian shaped spectrum centered at 1210 nm with a bandwidth of 135 nm. Spectral ripple as low as 0.3 dB has been measured.
