The sampled-grating distributed Bragg reflector(SGDBR) laser is a typical and important photonic integrated device,and has potential wide application to agile optical networks.A new dynamic model for this device has been developed,which combines the traveling-wave method for the active region and the transfer-matrix method for the passive sections into a single *** behaviors of wave-length switching of the SGDBR laser,which include the transient spectrum and mode competition,have been studied in detail using this model.A new efficient way has been proposed to improve the wavelength switching performance only by increasing the coupling coefficients without changing the carrier density.

It is shown that orbital angular momentum(OAM) is a promising new resource in future classical and quantum communications. However, the separation of OAM modes is still a big challenge. In this paper, we propose a simple and efficient separation method with a radial varying phase. In the method, specific radial varying phases are designed and modulated for different OAM modes. The resultant beam is focused to the spots with different horizontal and vertical positions after a convex lens, when the coordinate transformation, including two optical elements with coordinate transformation phase and correct phase, operates on the received *** horizontal position of the spot is determined by the vortex phases, and the vertical position of the spot is dependent on the radial varying phases. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed method is feasible both for separation of two OAM modes and separation of three OAM modes. The proposed separation method is available in principle for any neighboring OAM modes because the radial varying phase is controlled. Additionally, no extra instruments are introduced, and there is no diffraction and narrowing process limitation for the separation.
