A very wide tuning range of dual-wavelength semiconductor lasers with properly designed nonidentical InGaAsP quantum wells is reported. By well aligning the external cavity, the dual-wavelength operation can be achieved with a record wavelength separation about 191 nm (27.4 THz) at 22.7°C. The wide separation of two wavelengths is possible due to a proper modification of the external-cavity configuration and reduced gain competition of laser modes.
