6 THz range tunable 2.5 Gb/s frequency conversion by a multiquantum well Y laser

Improved monolithic interferometric semiconductor lasers in Y configuration are reported. When they are operated as electrically tunable light sources, single-longitudinal-mode emission with a very large CW tuning range up to 51 nm is obtained. By using all-quaternary compressively strained multi-quantum-well (MQW) active layers, low DC threshold currents down to >
