A new method to introduce a phase shift of π/2 equivalently by inversion of the refractive index difference, which can be easily done by conventional photolithography, is proposed and applied for a 1.5 μm GalnAsP/lnP DFB laser. The λ/4 shifted effect was confirmed by observing the lasing spectrum of an antireflection-coated DFB laser below threshold under CW operation.
