Abstract
Various semiconductor laser and optical amplifier designs and injection current control methods are disclosed that enable tailoring a distribution of the injection current along an active waveguide of the laser or the optical amplifier. Such configurations can be used to reduce longitudinal current crowding along the active waveguide of the laser or the optical amplifier. The electrodes and/or one or more layers of the laser or the optical amplifier may be segmented to provide a tailored longitudinal injection current distribution.
