Small-Signal Modulation and Analysis of Monolithic $1.3\ \mu \mathrm{m}$ InAs/GaAs Quantum Dot Lasers on Silicon

The first small-signal modulation experiments with monolithic single transverse mode InAs/GaAs lasers on Si demonstrate a 3dB bandwidth of 1.6 GHz. By fitting the modulation response curves, we extract high-speed laser parameters allowing an insight into the intrinsic laser dynamics.
