Abstract: A 1.3 μ m two-section multi-quantum well reflective semiconductor optical amplifier is designed and fabricated. The impacts of injection current density ratio and the reflectivity of the reflective facet on gain, saturation and noise characteristics are studied theoretically and experimentally. The results indicate that the gain and saturation power can be easily manipulated by changing the current density ratio; and better gain and noise characteristics can be obtained when the reflectivity is appropriately selected.

The wavelength division multiplexed-passive optical network (WDM-PON) is considered as one of the solutions for future access networks because of its large transmission capacity, network security, and data transparency. The reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) used in a WDM-PON has attracted much attention due to its simple structure, low-cost, and flexibility of use. The gain, saturation characteristics, and noise figure (NF) of an RSOA play important roles in an RSOA-based WDM-PON[1-3]. When an RSOA is employed in the optical network unit of a WDM-PON, it is required to become saturated easily to erase the incident downstream data and have large gain to amplify the upstream data[1]; and in order to suppress the extinction ratio of downstream optical signal, and decrease noise and nonlinear spectral distortion, the RSOA is required to work in a deep saturation regime[2]. In an RSOA-based WDM/SCM (subcarrier multiplexing) PON, the gain-saturated RSOA used in the optical line terminal can reduce optical beat interference noise[3]. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an RSOA with variable gain and saturation power, and low NF.

The multi-section method is used for quantum dot semiconductor super-luminescent diodes for broad bandwidth and in laser diodes for optical bistability. In addition, multi-section traveling-wave semiconductor optical amplifiers have also been reported in recent years[4-7]. It can enhance gain recovery rate and cross-gain modulation bandwidth[4], reduce pattern effects in wavelength conversion[5], control gain and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) spectrum[6], and equalize optical spectrum[7]. For a multi-section RSOA, Kim et al. proved it improved small-signal modulation bandwidth as a colorless light source in a WDM-PON[8]. Valicourt et al. reported that a multi-section RSOA reduced chirp when it was used as remote modulator in a PON[9] and enhanced reception responsivity and bandwidth when used as in-line photodetector[10]. However, there is no report on manipulating the gain, saturation power and low NF of a two-section multi-quantum well reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (MQW-RSOA) by adjusting the injection current density of the two sections.

In this paper, we design and fabricate a 1.3 μm two-section MQW-RSOA. The gain and noise characteristics at different current density ratios of the two sections are investigated experimentally and theoretically; and the effect of reflectivity is studied theoretically. The rest of this paper is organized as follows. Section 2 presents the experimental setup and a brief introduction to the model of the two-section MQW-RSOA. The corresponding experimental and theoretical results are described in Section 3. Finally, a brief conclusion is given in Section 4.

The fabricated two-section RSOA is a 1.3 μm MQW SOA, whose schematic diagram is shown in Fig. 1. The MQW active region consists of 3 tensile-strain InGaAsP wells and 4 compressively strained InGaAsP wells, which make the gain polarization insensitive. The RSOA has a ridge waveguide structure with stripe width W of 2 μm. The material epitaxy of the RSOA is performed by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition on an n-InP substrate. Wet-etching and plasma-enhanced chemical vapour deposition is used to form a 20 μm SiO2 insulated channel, which separates the RSOA into two sections. The two sections share the same MQW active region and other internal structures. The total length of the active region L is 1200 μm and the length ratio of the two sections, L1/L2, is 8/2, in which L1 is the length of the section near the input facet, and L2 is that of the section near the reflective facet. Two separate current sources I1 and I2 are used to independently drive each section of the MQW-RSOA. The current density ratio is J1/J2, where J1 = I1/(WL1) and J2 = I2/(WL2). The reflectivity of the input facet R1 is about 1 × 105 and the reflectivity of the reflective facet R2 is 4.8 × 103 or so.

Figure  1.  Schematic diagram of the two-section MQW-RSOA.

Figure 2 illustrates the schematic diagram of the experimental setup for gain and NF measurements. The wavelength of the continuous wave (CW) input signal is 1330 nm. The total injection current into the RSOA is 350 mA. The variable optical attenuator can continuously regulate the input power. The CW light is coupled into the MQW-RSOA via an optical circulator and the reflected optical signal from the reflective facet of the RSOA through the optical circulator is sent into a Yokogama AQ6370 optical spectrum analyzer (OSA). The input optical power is measured by an optical power meter and the output signal from the RSOA is measured by the OSA. The MQW-RSOA device is held at a constant temperature of 20 .

Figure  2.  Experimental setup for gain and NF measurements.

In the simulation, a segmentation model is used to account for the longitudinal distribution of the carrier density in the active region. The discretization method is employed to describe the wide spectrum characteristics of the ASE. For the material gain coefficient of the quantum-well structure, gain compression factors[11] with contributions from spectral hole burning and carrier heating are considered; and a logarithmic dependence on carrier density is used[12]. NF is calculated using the ASE power spectral density and the gain at the signal frequency[13-15].

Figure  3.  Gain and NF versus J1/J2 at different input powers.

In this section, the corresponding experimental and theoretical results are discussed. The influences of current density ratio J1/J2 and the reflectivity of the reflective facet R2 on the gain, saturation power, and NF are studied. The current density ratio between the two sections, J1/J2, is chosen to scale the nonuniformity of injection current density distribution. J1/J2 < 1 means that the current density near the input facet is smaller than that near the reflective facet; while J1/J2 > 1 indicates the current density near the input facet is larger; and J1/J2 = 1 describes the uniform distribution of current density in the two sections.

Figures 3(a) and 3(b) give the measured and calculated results of gain and NF as a function of J1/J2 at input power of 30 dBm and 6 dBm. It can be found that with J1/J2 increasing, the gain increases firstly and then decreases, whereas the NF shows a contrary tendency with the gain. For smaller input power, the gain has the maximum value and the NF has the minimum value when J1/J2 = 1 (current density uniform distribution in the two sections). However, for bigger input power, the maximum gain and the minimum NF will be achieved when J1/J2 < 1. With the input optical power increasing, it depletes more carriers, which speeds up the depleting rate of carriers along the propagation direction. In order to keep the amplification of photons, the carrier density near the reflective facet needs to be increased and the corresponding current density also needs to be enhanced. As a result, the maximum gain is obtained when J2 is larger than J1, i.e., J1/J2 < 1. According to Ref. [13], NF has an inverse relationship with gain, therefore the minimum NF occurs when gain is at its maximum. Figures 3(a) and 3(b) also show that gain decreases and the NF increases with input power increasing. This is because large input power makes RSOA saturate, thus causing the reduction of gain and the increase of NF. It can also be seen that the measurement results deviate from the simulation results to a larger extents when the input power and J1/J2 are larger, this is because the heating effect decreases gain and increases NF.

Figure 4 presents the results of input power versus output power at J1/J2 of, 0.6, 1 and 2.5. It clearly shows that when input power is smaller, the gain has the maximum value at J1/J2 of 1; and with the input power increasing, the maximum gain shifts to J1/J2 of 0.6.

Figure  4.  Input power versus output power at different J1/J2.

Figure 5 presents the saturation input power and saturation output power versus J1/J2. The saturation power is the optical power at which the gain drops by 3 dB with respect to its small-signal value. The measured and calculated results show that saturation input power has a minimum value and saturation output power has a maximum value when J1/J2 = 1. This is because when current density is uniformly distributed, the RSOA gets saturated more easily. Then the saturation input power is at a minimum. And lightwave with smaller input power has larger gain, as a result, the RSOA gets maximum saturation output power when J1/J2 = 1. Compared with common an MQW-RSOA (J1/J2 = 1), the two-section MQW-RSOA displays variable saturation power when changing J1/J2; various saturation input power varying from –14.0 to –8.0 dBm and saturation output power varying from 7.5 to 12.0 dBm are measured.

Figure  5.  Saturation power versus J1/J2.

In the simulations of Section 3.1, the reflectivity of the input facet and that of the reflective facet (i.e, R1 and R2) are 1 × 105 and 4.8 × 103, respectively, which are set to have the same value as the corresponding reflectivity of the fabricate RSOA. In this section, the effect R2 on the gain, saturation power and NF are studied theoretically.

Figures 6(a) and 6(b) show the calculated gain and NF versus R2 at different J1/J2. The input power of the continuous light is –30 dBm and the bias current is 350 mA. It can be seen from Fig. 6(a) that with the reflectivity R2 increasing, the gain first increases quickly and then keeps nearly constant due to gain saturation. In Fig. 6(b), with R2 increasing, the NF decreases rapidly due to the large reflection power suppressing ASE, and then it increases as a result of gain saturation. It can be seen that the gain is relatively larger and NF is smaller when R2 is around 10%–40%. So the reflectivity of the two-section MQW-RSOA can be optimized in order to make the gain and NF simultaneously have better characteristics.

Figure  7.  Saturation power versus reflectivity. (a) Saturation input power versus R2. (b) Saturation output power versus R2.

Figures 7(a) and 7(b) give the calculated saturation power versus R2 at different J1/J2. The bias current is 350 mA. The results in Fig. 7(a) indicate that the saturation input power first decreases quickly until R2 is larger than 40%, and then the saturation input power decreases slowly. This is because a small increase of reflectivity results in large increase of reflective optical power, which makes the RSOA saturate more easily, so the saturation input power decreases quickly; and when R2 is larger than 40%, the reflective optical power is large enough to make RSOA work in a deep saturation regime, therefore the saturation input power decreases slowly. And because small input power has large gain while large input power has small gain, the saturation output power in Fig. 7(b) shows a contrary tendency with the saturation input power. The results show that we can choose higher reflectivity to obtain larger saturation output power.

A 1.3 μm two-section MQW-RSOA with variable gain and saturation power is demonstrated. The measured input saturation power varying from –14.0 to –8.0 dBm and output saturation power varying from 7.5 to 12.0 dBm are obtained by changing J1/J2. Furthermore, it is found that gain has the maximum value and the NF has the minimum value at J1/J2 of 1 when input power is smaller. While when input power is bigger, the maximum gain and the minimum NF are obtained at J1/J2 lower than 1. Calculation results show that better gain and noise characteristics can be achieved when R2 is around 10%–40%.
