Single frequency lasers and frequency tunable lasers are essential components needed for the future generation of optical fiber communication systems and exchange networks. The spectral linewidths of the state-of-the-art distributed feedback lasers are reviewed. Characteristics of frequency tuning of multi-electrode DFB lasers and DBR lasers are discussed.
