D. Delprat et al., INTEGRATED MULTIQUANTUM-WELL DISTRIBUTED-FEEDBACK LASER-ELECTROABSORPTION MODULATOR WITH A NEGATIVE CHIRP FOR ZERO-BIAS VOLTAGE, Electronics Letters, 33(1), 1997, pp. 53-55
The authors report for the first time, the achievement, in an integrat
ed laser-modulator structure, of a small negative chirp for both zero
bias voltage and a large detuning of 55 nm between the exciton peak an
d the operating wavelength. No influence of the photogenerated carrier
s on the chirp parameter is expected in the reported bandgap engineere
d structure.
