Abstract

The study of the coupling phenomena and of the operation regions in laterally coupled diode lasers is a major key parameter for the understanding and development of these devices as a solution for the new optical communications systems. To understand the behaviour of these devices a complete study of their dynamics must be performed. In order to do so, in this paper a study of both the noise spectrum and frequency response is made. The aim of this study is to compare the performance of these devices as a single ridge laser and as a twin stripe operation.
