The results of experiment showed that good single longitudinal mode operation was achieved, with side mode suppression ratio (SMSR) being over 35 dB, and the wavelength range was from 1,559.64 to 1,563.02 nm when the operation current was from 50 to 160 mA at the temperature of 25 ℃, and the SMSR increased to 46.29 dB when the injection current was 130 mA.展开更多
