In parallel with the development of fiber optics for transmission of digital information, the
1970s and 1980s saw the development of techniques for the transmission of wide …

A detailed model is developed for analyzing fiber grating external cavity lasers for both static
and small-signal modulation conditions. The chip and package parasitics and leakage …

The nonlinear distortions of a directly modulated laser diode applied to AM-VSB lightwave
CATV systems are studied from the viewpoint of rate equations. A simple method for …

For modulation frequencies with arbitrary frequency spacing the intermodulation distortions
of laser diodes have been investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The second …

Numerical calculations of the second-order harmonic distortion in the amplitude modulation-
response of Fabry-Perot, and distributed feedback (DFB) lasers are presented, and the …

The capability of retrieving spectral information from line shapes recorded by two-tone
frequency-modulation spectroscopy (TTFMS) is investigated. A TTFMS theory accounting for …

The dynamic characteristics of an edge-emitting laser under large-signal modulation are
analyzed in the frequency domain using a harmonic balance method on device level. The …

The laser is one of the most important elements in fiber optic links since it generates the
coherent optical wave that carries the signal. Typical laser wavelengths are 1.3 µm and 1.55 …

We report on how the contributions from spatial hole burning, gain suppression, and
relaxation oscillations to the chirp and harmonic distortion of SL-MQW DFB lasers can be …

The light-to-current (LI) and light-to-voltage (LV) differential nonlinearities in the simple
network of a customary LED and an external resistor R in series are analyzed and …
