ELECTRO-ABSORPTION MODULATED LASERS WITH IDENTICAL-ACTIVE LAYER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18606448 titled 'ELECTRO-ABSORPTION MODULATED LASERS WITH IDENTICAL-ACTIVE LAYER
The abstract describes an innovation in electro-absorption modulated lasers with identical active layers. These lasers consist of a substrate with a passive waveguide region, an LD region on one side, and an EAM region on the other side of the passive waveguide region. An active layer extends from the LD region to the EAM region, with a grating layer, a clad layer, and electrodes in the LD and EAM regions.
- Identical active layers in electro-absorption modulated lasers
