摘要：

A gain-switched Fabry-Perot laser diode at 1.3 mu m was self-seeded at different electrical bias and optical feedback rates, With a strong feedback, a comparatively large tuning range and a high sidemode suppression ratio were obtained but multimode emission might occur around the center of the range, Similar phenomenon was observed at a weaker feedback when the electrical bias was sufficiently large, The degradation in tunability was attributed to a broadening of the optical pulses, resulting in temporal overlapping of different longitudinal modes, Our optimized feedback of 2.5% and 3.1 mA bias provided a tuning range of 23.5 nm with a sidemode suppression ratio > 10 dB.
