摘要
A prototype tunable laser of similar to2 mm x 1.5 mm size has been developed for wavelength-division-multiplexing (WDM) application, This device is an integrated micromachined polysilicon three-dimensional (3-D) mirror with a single-mode Fabry-Perot laser diode and an antireflection-coated optical fiber. The micromirror can be driven to move laterally by an electrostatic comb-drive that changes the external cavity length of laser diode enabling wavelength tuning, A wavelength-tunable range of 16 nm is obtained using a driving voltage within +/-3 V at a bias voltage of 10 V.
