Abstract

The invention discloses a hybrid integrated composite cavity wave length-tunable laser transmitter. Optical waveguides of a passive photonic chip sequentially comprise phase control regions, a first reflection grating, a phase coupling region and a second reflection grating, and a tunable laser outer cavity is formed by the phase control regions, the first reflection grating, the phase coupling region and the second reflection grating. Optical waveguides connecting the phase coupling regions are Y-branch waveguide couplers of two asymmetrical waveguide arms, wherein the second reflection grating is arranged on one waveguide arm, and a waveguide laser intensity modulator is arranged on the other waveguide arm; tunable lasers are output from the middle of a composite reflection mirror in a light split mode, and is then transmitted and output at the speed modulated according to the laser intensity of the lasers from a port of the waveguide arm provided with the waveguide laser intensity modulator. Because the second reflection grating and the waveguide laser intensity modulator are arranged on the two Y-branch waveguide couplers of the two asymmetrical waveguide arms respectively, the size of the hybrid integrated composite cavity wave length-tunable laser transmitter is reduced; the waveguide laser intensity modulator can achieve high-speed laser transmission.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor laser, in particular to a hybrid integrated composite cavity wavelength tunable laser emitter. Background technique [0002] Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) has been widely used in fiber optic communication systems. A wavelength division multiplexed optoelectronic transponder consists of a laser, a modulator, a receiver and associated electronics. The operation of the WDM converter can be realized by a fixed-wavelength laser at the near-infrared wavelength of 1550nm. Due to the ease of operation and high reliability, distributed feedback (DFB) lasers are widely used in WDM transmission systems. In the DFB laser, the diffraction grating that provides optical feedback is located above the entire gain resonant cavity, so that the laser will obtain a stable single-mode oscillation at a fixed wavelength. Also, information transmission at low digital rates can also be achieved by directly modulating the DFB ...
