Description
Description
Differences between a Fabry-Perot and a DFB Laserdiode
A conventional laser consists of an amplifying medium and two end mirrors. The cavity
is longer than one wavelength, and a standing wave is created. The number n of half
L
-
wavelengths
λ
is n
=
2
×
--
. If L >>
λ
then we speak of a Fabry-Perot Laser because the
λ
laserdiode emits multi-longitudinal modes. Typically the laserdiode is 250 µm long. For
λ
= 1310 nm/1550 nm n is about 350. Therefore for many neighboring wavelengths the
“standing wavelength” condition specified above is fulfilled. For a DFB-Laser a special
grating acts as a distributed filter allowing only one of the cavity’s longitudinal modes to
˜
propagate. This can be described with a reduced oscillator length L which is in the range
of
λ.
For such a reduced oscillator length the standing wavelength condition will be
fulfilled for n
≈
2 what means for only one wavelength.
