Low-chirp wavelength-selectable 1/spl times/6 laser arrays suitable for WDM applications

Seven packaged wavelength selectable laser arrays were tested and found to have average chirp parameter of 0.18 /spl Aring/ under 2.5 Gb/Sec modulation. Temperature tuning necessary to reach a standard WDM wavelength for any laser on any of the packages was /spl les/5.2/spl deg/C.
