We report a direct, modulated bandwidth enhancement in a amplified feedback laser (AFL), both experimentally and numerically. By means of fabricated devices, an enhanced ?3??dB bandwidth of 27 GHz with an in-band flatness of ±3??dB is experimentally confirmed at 13?°C. It is numerically confirmed that the modulated bandwidth of the AFL can be enhanced to two times its original bandwidth, with more controlled flexibility to realize a flat, small-signal response.
