Abstract

Unwanted optical feedback is a common problem in many optical setups of laser systems. To quantify the effect, the influence of a controlled external feedback on the emission properties of a low power distributed feedback ridge waveguide and a high power distributed Bragg reflector tapered diode laser are analyzed. The measured influence of the phase dependent feedback over several orders of magnitude in feedback power attenuation on emission wavelength is discussed and compared to theory.
