Abstract

The invention discloses a wavelength-tunable directly modulated silicon-based external cavity laser. A reflective semiconductor optical amplifier of the directly modulated external cavity laser is connected to a phase shifter through a silicon-based spot size converter and then is connected to an input end of a narrow passband filter; an output end of the narrow passband filter is connected to theinput end of a micro-ring modulator; a download end of the micro-ring modulator is connected to the input end of a first reflector; and a through end of the micro-ring modulator is connected to a second reflector. According to the wavelength-tunable directly modulated silicon-based external cavity laser, a filter structure is formed through cursor effects of the narrow passband filter and the micro-ring modulator to obtain laser light with a wide tuning range and a narrow linewidth, and meanwhile, output light is modulated. The micro-ring modulator has dual functions of filtering and modulating and has the advantages of high structure integration, low manufacturing cost and low energy consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of integrated optics of optical communication, in particular to a silicon-based external cavity laser with adjustable wavelength and direct modulation. Background technique [0002] In the field of integrated optics, silicon-based photonic devices have achieved considerable development in recent years due to their advantages such as CMOS compatibility, large refractive index difference, good thermo-optic effect and carrier dispersion effect. Among them, silicon-based MZM modulators and silicon-based microring modulators have achieved product-level applications in the fields of optical communication and optical interconnection. With the rapid growth of network data, low-power, high-speed optical signal transmission technology has become the key, and silicon-based optoelectronic integrated chips play an important role in this process. [0003] However, due to the indirect bandgap material properties of silicon, silicon...
