Abstract
STM 16 (2.488 Gbit/s) system operation over a wide DFB chip temperatur e range of more than 120 K (from -25 degrees C to +95 degrees C) is pr esented with dispersion penalty below 1 dB after transmission across 1 00 km standard fibre, DFB operation at 1.55 mu m with a high sidemode suppression ratio of 40 dB is achieved within -40 degrees C to +95 deg rees C. The lasers were realised using a BRS lateral structure and a q uaternary InGaAsP MQW stack with six compressively strained quantum we lls and a highly detuned DFB grating.
