Abstract: Provided is a tunable laser device. The tunable laser device includes a lower clad layer, first to third quantum well patterns disposed on the lower clad layer and arranged in a first direction parallel to a top surface of the lower clad layer, an upper clad layer disposed on the first quantum well pattern, and first grating patterns disposed between the third quantum well pattern and the lower clad layer. The first to third quantum well patterns are arranged in the first direction parallel to a top surface of the lower clad layer, the upper clad layer includes a p-type conductive clad layer, the upper clad layer includes an n-type conductive clad layer, and the third quantum well pattern is electrically intrinsic. When a reverse bias is applied to the upper clad layer, the third quantum well pattern, and the lower clad layer, the third quantum well pattern is changed in refractive index.

Abstract: An optical signal generating apparatus according to an embodiment of the inventive concept includes a first optical intensity modulator for modulating a first optical signal to generate a 2N-level (where N is a positive integer) second optical signal in the form of a binary signal, a first optical amplifier for amplifying the second optical signal to generate a third optical signal, and a second optical intensity modulator for modulating the third optical signal to generate a 2N+1-level fourth optical signal in the form of a binary signal. The optical signal generating apparatus according to an embodiment of the inventive concept may generate a low-cost, high-quality optical signal by using an optical device to generate a multi-level optical signal. Additionally, the optical signal generating apparatus according to an embodiment of the inventive concept may generate a multi-level optical signal by sequentially performing optical modulation and optical amplification operations.
