Packaged 1.5- \mu m Quantum-Well SOA With 0.8-W Output Power and 5.5-dB Noise Figure

We report the demonstration of a lensed-fiber-pigtailed InGaAsP-InP quantum-well semiconductor optical amplifier based on the slab-coupled optical waveguide (SCOW) concept. At a 5-A bias current and a wavelength of 1540 nm, the packaged SCOW amplifier (SCOWA) exhibits a record 0.8-W saturation outpu...
