Direct modulation of InGaAsP/InP double heterostructure lasers
Abstract
Direct modulation of an InGaAsP/InP double heterostructure laser was investigated experimentally. Sinusoidal modulation up to 2.5 GHz was achieved with almost constant modulation efficiency. Pulse responses showed that the damped relaxation oscillation in light output was well suppressed.
