B. Clesca et al., 3.2NM WAVELENGTH TUNING VIA TEMPERATURE CONTROL FOR INTEGRATED ELECTROABSORPTION MODULATOR DFB LASER WITH HIGH TOLERANCE TO CHROMATIC DISPERSION, Electronics Letters, 32(10), 1996, pp. 927-929
The wavelength emitted from a 2.5 Gbit/s integrated electroabsorption
modulator/DFB laser module is tuned over 3.2 nm via the chip temperatu
re control, while sensitivity penalties caused by the chromatic disper
sion of 770 km standard fibre remain <1 dB. This significantly relaxes
the manufacturers' constraints on thr wavelength specifications in th
e scope of multichannel systems.
