Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide an externally modulated laser, a passive optical communication device and a system. The externally modulated laser comprises a laser, which comprises a partially reflecting mirror, a gain medium and a filter, which form a laser oscillation cavity of the laser. The filter is used to filter lights that are emitted by the gain medium so as to generate light waves with a preset wavelength. The partially reflecting mirror is used to transmit a part of the generated light waves with the preset wavelength to the modulator so as to be modulated and to reflect the other part of the generated light waves with the preset wavelength to the gain medium. The invention solves the problem of great power consumption of conventional externally modulated lasers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to optical fiber communication technology, in particular to externally modulated lasers, passive optical communication equipment and systems. Background technique [0002] 10Gb / s externally modulated laser (EML: Externally Modulated Laser) is widely used in optical fiber communication technology, among which, electro-absorption modulated laser has become the most typical device due to its small size and fast modulation speed, and it is the key device of the next generation PON in the access network . According to the international standard ITU-TG987.3, the wavelength range of XG-PON is 1575-1580nm. The electro-absorption modulated laser is mainly composed of two parts: a distributed feedback (DFB: Distributed Feedback) laser and an electro-absorption modulator (EAM: Electra-absorption Modulator). The DFB laser is used to generate continuous laser light, and the electro-absorption modulator is used to convert high-speed The elect...
