We report an electro-absorption modulator integrated with a distributed feedback Bragg laser fabricated by butt-joint technology. The lasing wavelength of the EML laser was 1311.71 nm, the output power was 10.04 mW when the current of the DFB section was 100 mA, the side-mode suppression ratio was greater than 50 dB, and the small-signal bandwidth was 29.40 GHz when the bias voltage of the modulator was −2 V. A 50 Gb/s data transmission over a single-mode fiber of up to 10 km was realized, which could be used as a light source for 50 G passive optical network systems.
