Compact optical comb generator using InP tunable laser and push-pull modulator

We have investigated the suitability of InP-based push-pull modulators to generate flat optical comb spectra. The residual amplitude modulation that was a consequence of driving the modulator well above its design voltage (up to 4V[pi]) is demonstrated to have no adverse effect for the comb generati...
