Abstract
A grating-coupled external-cavity quantum dot laser is tuned across a 201 n m rang at a maximum bias of 2.87 kA/cm(2), one order of magnitude less than the bias required for comparable tuning of quantum well lasers. The tuning range increases for higher cavity losses of the quantum dot laser.
