M. Uemukai et al., INGAAS ALGAAS DISTRIBUTED-BRAGG-REFLECTOR LASERS WITH CURVED SURFACE GRATINGS FOR MONOLITHIC INTEGRATION/, Electronics Letters, 33(17), 1997, pp. 1464-1465
DBR lasers using curved surface gratings are proposed and demonstrated
. They are designed to reflect a guided wave diverging from the end of
a narrow active channel. Stable singlemode lasing was obtained at up
to 32.5 mW output power under CW operation. The laser can be Fabricate
d bq a simple process without regrowth and is suitable fur constructin
g monolithic photonic integrated circuits.
