Abstract
PBH-DFB-LD emitting at $1.55\mu\textrm{m}$ wavelength has been fabricated for 2.5 Gbps optical fiber communications. For fabrication of PBH-DFB-LD. inteference expose for grating formation and 3-step LPE epitaxial growth was used. Fabricated PBH-DFB-LD operates in single longitudinal mode with more than 35dB SMSR and its threshold current is less than 15 mA. The operating wavelength is 1530-1550 nm with the temperature dependence of $0.9\AA/^{\circ}C$. Coupling coefficient(K) was estimated as $$97 cm^{-1} by means of stop-band measurement. PBH-DFB-LD fabricated in this experiment can be applicable as light source for 2.5 Gbps optical fiber communication system. ystem.
LPE와 간섭노광법을 이용하여 $1.55\mu\textrm{m}$ 파장의 InGaAsP/InP PBH-DFB-LD를 제작하여 스펙트럼 특성을 평가하였다. 제작된 PBH-DFB-LD의 발진 임계전류는 15mA 이하이며, $1.55\mu\textrm{m}$ 파장에서 광출력 7mW 이상까지도 단일 종모우드로 동작하였으며 측모우드 억제율 35dB 이상을 얻었다. 본 연구에서 제작된 PBH-DFB-LD 발진파장의 온도 의존 특성은 $0.9\AA/^{\circ}C$ 이며, 금지대역폭 측정에 의한 회절격자의 결합계수(k)는 97cm-1로 평가되었다.
