Abstract: The present invention is the use of coupled quantum wells in the active region of a semiconductor laser to modulate the frequency and amplitude of the light output of the laser. In a particular embodiment of the present invention the coupled quantum wells are contained in a graded index of refraction semiconductor double heterostructure laser. The active region of this tunable laser consists of two quantum wells having a width of approximately 50 Angstroms or less which are separated by a barrier layer having a width of approximately 20 Angstroms or less. The quantum well material is intrinsic GaAs and the barrier layer is Al.sub.x Ga.sub.1-x As wherein x=0.23. The active region is surrounded by the double heterostructure in which one side is doped p-type and the second side is doped n-type. The resulting laser is a p-i-n type structure.
