Abstract: A semiconductor optical device including a buried heterostructure (BH) has reduced parasitic capacitance and reduced inter-diffusion. The semiconductor optical device is manufactured by a regrowth on both sides of a mesa structure with an Fe-doped current blocking layer and an n-type cladding layer outside of an active region in the mesa structure.

Abstract: A call test system sets up a call between a calling terminal and a called terminal. The call test system generates an original signal in a first format and converts it to a second format which can be stored in a memory of the calling terminal. The calling terminal sends the signal in the second format over the channel to the called terminal. The called terminal stores the received signal in the second format and sends it to the call test system. The call test system converts the received signal in the second format to the first format and compares it with the original signal in the first format. The comparison may be in the time domain and/or the frequency domain.
