CHIRP COMPENSATION AND SBS SUPPRESSION USING A MULTI-SECTION LASER

摘要

A method includes driving a multi-section laser, wherein each section is electrically isolated from an adjacent section with sufficient resistance so that current through each section is contained substantially in that section.
