Abstract

A 1x2 multi-mode-interferometer (MMI) laser diode was successfully designed and fabricated, which demonstrated three coherent outputs of tunable single frequency emission with more than 30dB side mode suppression ratio (SMSR), a tuning range of 25nm in C and L band, as well as 750 kHz linewidth. This 1x2 MMI laser could be expanded to more advanced configurations such as 1xN or MxN (M≥1, N>2) MMI lasers to achieve a multiple coherent output source. In addition, these lasers do not require material regrowth and high resolution gratings which can significantly increase the yield and reduce the cost.
