Abstract
A novel class of frequency‐ and polarization‐modulated GaAs‐AlxGa1−xAs double‐heterojunction lasers is described. The lasers are formed by the monolithical integration of an optical amplifier, an electro‐optic polarization modulator, and a polarizer. Frequency modulation of 20 Å/V and polarization rotation of 40° has been achieved by the linear electro‐optic effect.Keywords
