Semiconductor lasers are the main light sources of optical communication networks and include three types, namely, fabry-perot laser (FP laser) distributed feedback laser (DFB) and Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL). The DFB laser constructs Bragg grating in the semiconductor, realizes single longitudinal mode selection by using light distribution feedback, and has the characteristics of high speed, narrow line width and dynamic single-mode working. The period of the gratings in the prior art for fabricating DFB chips is typically 200 nm and 240 nm, while the duty cycle is typically 25% and 50%. The grating duty cycle affects the bandwidth of each wavelength of its reflectance spectrum, and the spacing between adjacent channels is increasing, affecting its linewidth in the DFB.
