Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a compact external cavity tunable laser apparatus. The laser apparatus includes a substrate, an external cavity tunable reflecting unit that reflects laser light entering from the outside on the substrate and selects and varies a wavelength of the reflected laser light, an optical fiber that outputs the laser light on the substrate; and an highly integrated light source that integrates the laser light input from the external cavity tunable reflecting unit using inclined input and output waveguides, a curved waveguide, and a straight waveguide to output the integrated laser light to the optical fiber in order to match an optical axis formed with the external cavity tunable reflecting unit with an optical axis formed with an optical fiber.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a directly-coupled wavelength-tunable external cavity laser including a gain medium that generates an optical signal by an applied bias current; an optical waveguide structure that is coupled to the gain medium to form a minor surface and causes lasing in the mirror surface when the applied bias current has a threshold or higher; and a radio frequency transmission medium that adds a radio frequency signal to the applied bias current to adjust an operating speed of the optical signal.
