Abstract
We present the technical approach and the preliminary device results o n the first integration of a Wannier Stark (WS) electroabsorption (EA) modulator with a DFB laser on InP. The WS modulator active layer cons ists of a lattice matched InGaAs-InAIAs superlattice (SL) grown by sol id source MBE. It is butt-coupled to a laser grown by AP-MOVPE whose a ctive layer includes a strained InGaAsP-InGaAsP MQW stack. Device resu lts cover static performances of integrated lasers and modulators, and measurements of high frequency characteristics (small signal bandwidt h and 10 Gb/s eye diagram).
