MultiSourceLaser™ network lasers (MSL's) are monolithic semiconductor lasers that produce an output beam comprised of many spectral lines (longitudinal modes). MSL's provide a single simultaneous source of many beams with individual wavelengths (λ) centered from 700 to 1600nm. All of the individual λ beam components can be separated out of the MSL's output beam and, for example, independently modulated and then recombined at a transmission fiber. MSL's can be designed and controlled to have λ values and line spacing for applications such as DWDM telecommunications (ITU) or for both clocking and data transport in future microprocessors. MultiSourceLaser™ Network Lasers:· Replace single wavelength sources such as DBF lasers Produce multiple wavelengths simultaneously and replace tunable lasers Significantly change the economics of DWDM laser sources Enable monolithic integration of laser sources and laser beam management functions For related information see Intellectual Property
