Abstract
In conclusion, we measured switching time in a widely tunable gating assisted codirectional coupler with sampled Bragg reflector (GCSR) laser and showed that it depends on the carrier lifetime and the static-tuning characteristic. By using pre-distortion technique, a decrease of switching time by a factor 2 could be measured.Keywords
