A spectral linewidth of 170 kHz was achieved at a 1.5- mu m wavelength in a 1200- mu m long corrugation-pitch-modulated (CPM) distributed feedback (DFB) laser having multiple quantum wells (MQW). This is the narrowest linewidth ever reported for InGaAsP DFB lasers. The CPM structure is effective in maintaining the single longitudinal mode at a high output power by suppressing the spatial hole burning effect. The linewidth-power product is 400 kHz-mW, and the extrapolated residual spectral linewidth is 150 kHz.>
