| Abstract(in English) | To evaluate the reliability of a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA), we carried out long-term aging tests. It is suggested that the degradation process of the SOA is similar to that of the BH laser because the degradation behavior is similar to that of the BH laser, and because the activation energy of the SOA is close to that of the BH laser. The lifetime is estimated to be over 10^5 hours at 25℃ and 100 mA based on a criterion of 1 dB decrease in gain. The observation of an active layer by the use of optical-beam-induced-currents (OBIC) indicates the degradation at a butt-joint region of the active layer. |
