Description

Wavelength tuning method of SGDBR tunable semiconductor laser
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor photoelectron, and particularly relates to a wavelength tuning method of an SGDBR tunable semiconductor laser.
Background
The tunable semiconductor laser is one of key devices in a next-generation all-optical dynamic optical network, can be used for wavelength backup and inventory management, reduces the system cost, can provide functions of automatic wavelength configuration, tunable wavelength conversion, wavelength routing and the like in a reconfigurable optical network, and greatly increases the flexibility of the optical network. The tunable semiconductor laser with the monolithic integration structure has the advantages of wide tuning range, small volume, high wavelength tuning speed, easy combination with other devices and the like, and is a preferred scheme for photonic integration and dynamic optical network application.
SGDBR (tunable Sampled Distributed Bragg Reflector) tunable semiconductor lasers have received much attention and research because of their advantages of wide tuning range, small size, fast wavelength switching speed, and easy monolithic integration with other semiconductor devices. The basic structure of the SGDBR tunable semiconductor laser is shown in fig. 1, and includes a front grating region (FSG), an Active region (Active), a Phase region (Phase), and a rear grating Region (RSG) in sequence. A sampled grating is a special periodic grating structure formed by periodically removing regions in a uniform grating, the periodic modulation resulting in a comb-like reflection spectrum of the grating. Different sampling periods are selected in the front grating area and the rear grating area, the periods of the corresponding comb-shaped reflection spectrum sequences are staggered by a certain distance, and when a pair of spectrum peaks in the two comb-shaped reflection spectrum sequences coincide, a single output wavelength can be selected. When current is injected into the front grating region and the rear grating region, the effective refractive index of the passive waveguide region can be changed by utilizing the plasma effect of free carriers so as to control the position of a comb-shaped reflectance spectrum peak; the phase region is used for changing the cavity mode of the laser; different grating reflection peaks and cavity modes can be aligned by simultaneously changing the tuning currents of the front grating area, the back grating area and the phase area, and the tuning mode similar to the vernier effect can realize a larger wavelength tuning range under the condition of small injection current.
The corresponding relation between the output wavelength of the SGDBR tunable semiconductor laser and the injection currents of the front and rear grating regions is very complex and cannot be expressed by a basic algorithm. At present, researchers mainly design an automatic wavelength scanning control system of an SGDBR (glass distributed Bragg reflector) laser by using LabVIEW software, the system can automatically scan current of the laser, collect and analyze an output spectrum of the laser and generate a current-wavelength data query table of the laser, and the method is long in time consumption for finding the relation between the current and the wavelength by depending on experiments. The technical error during the actual manufacture of the SGDBR causes the change of the structural parameters of the laser, so even if the current-wavelength correspondence relationship of the same batch of SGDBR tunable semiconductor lasers is greatly different, therefore, a 'current-wavelength' data query table generated by one SGDBR tunable semiconductor laser is not suitable for another SGDBR tunable semiconductor laser.
