摘要：

In this letter, we describe a simple method to adjust the oscillation wavelength of distributed-feedback (DFB) lasers after the device fabrication without using any external active tuning. The method utilizes a permanent change of refractive index in quantum well active layer induced by external laser beam irradiation. We have demonstrated 0.36 mn adjustment in a 1.55-mu m ridge waveguide DFB laser.
