Abstract
The distributed feedback laser diode (DFB-LD) is a promising light source for gigabit long-haul transmission systems because of its single-longitudinal-mode operation even under high-speed modulation. However, the intensity noise degradation caused by optical feedback from single-mode fiber ends is more critical in DFB-LD because of its high coherence. Therefore, we have developed a DFB-LD module with an optical isolator.
