Abstract

For device analysis and optimization, a model based on Transfer Matrices Method was built to simulation the performance of a new integrated device. This novel DFB laser was composed of two serial sections to provide selectable wavelengths. The periods of two Bragg gratings were different and were chosen to achieve a spacing of 20nm between the two corresponding Bragg wavelengths. The model is more simple and convenient to simulate optical integrated device than other direct simulation methods used before. The simulation results prove that this novel waveguide structure of the serial DFB lasers is feasible. The integrated optical device was fabricated and two wavelengths of 1.51um and 1.53um were realized under different work conditions.
