Problems solved by technology

However, due to the high cost of the electron beam exposure technology, the writing speed is very slow, and due to the characteristics of the electron beam itself, the accuracy of the working wavelength of the laser array produced by it is not enough, which affects the quality or cost of the laser array, thereby reducing the laser. performance, and increases the cost of the laser

Abstract

A method and a device for realizing a low-cost tunable semiconductor laser based on a reconstruction-equivalent chirp technology belong to the technical field of optoelectronics, and relate to the design and manufacture of a complex distributed feedback tunable semiconductor laser. The invention aims to provide a low-cost tunable distributed feedback semiconductor laser for the future WDM-PON market by adopting the reconstruction-equivalent chirp technology for low-cost manufacture.
