Abstract
The effect of the reflectivity of both facets and the phase of a phase tuning section on the self-pulsation (SP) characteristics of multisection complex-coupled (CC) DFB lasers is investigated in terms of yield. The lasers are composed of two CC DFB sections and a phase tuning section between them. As the coupling strength and the coupling ratio (CR) decrease, the effect of the reflected fields from both facets and the other DFB section on the mode characteristics of one DFB section increases, so that the yield decreases. As the facet reflectivity increases, the maximum yield and the range of the phase of a phase tuning section with yield more than 60% decrease independent of the coupling strength and CR. The yield characteristics of CR=0.2 are better than those of CR=0.1 with the same coupling strength due to the larger complex coupling effect. The case with ${\mid}{\kappa}L{\mid}=3$ and CR=0.2 shows best yield characteristics among the cases considered in this work.
