Abstract
Optimizing the regrowth over epitaxial layers during manufacture of a distributed feedback laser. In one example embodiment, a method for depositing an InP regrowth layer on an epitaxial base portion of a distributed feedback laser includes growing a first portion of the regrowth layer at an initial substrate temperature of approximately 580 degrees Celsius to a thickness between approximately 300 Angstroms and approximately 900 Angstroms, increasing the substrate temperature from the initial substrate temperature to an increased substrate temperature of approximately 660 degrees Celsius, growing a second portion of the regrowth layer at the increased substrate temperature, doping a first part of an uppermost layer of the regrowth layer at a concentration of approximately 8.00*10^17/cm3 at the increased substrate temperature, and doping a second part of the uppermost layer of the regrowth layer at a concentration between approximately 1.90*10^18/cm3 and approximately 2.00*10^18/cm3 at the increased substrate temperature.
