Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018009538A1] A grating based optical transmitter includes a light source region coupled to an interference region, two reflective regions on both sides of the interference region, and one or several gratings interacting with the interference light wave in the interference region causing a vertical emission. Two electrodes are used to inject electrical carriers, and a third electrode can be added to modulate the electrical carrier density recombined in the light source region. Compared to conventional edge-emitting laser with two electrodes, the grating-based optical transmitter in this invention largely reduces the packaging cost and complexity due to the vertical emission, and largely enhances the modulation bandwidth due to the three-terminal configuration.
