We demonstrated a C-band dual-wavelength tunable laser with a silicon-photonic chip and a QD-SOA. The two oscillation wavelengths could be controlled independently by the filter structures which consist of a ring resonator and a DBR. The frequency difference of the two lasers could be tuned in the range of 22.6 GHz to 192.0 GHz. In addition, we proposed a structure that reduces the reflectivity of the DBRs and confirmed that the signals transmitted through the DBRs could be outputs into the chip. A millimeter-wave, whose frequency corresponds to the frequency difference between the incident two lasers, was observed by injecting the dual-wavelength laser amplified by EDFA into a high-speed photodetector. These dual-wavelength lasers will be effective light sources for beyond 5G RoF communication system. Acknowledgement This research was partly supported by JSPS KAKENHI Grant Number JP 19H02634.

N2 - A C-band tunable dual-wavelength laser for a RoF light source is demonstrated. The difference frequency was tunable in the range of 22.6 GHz to 192.0 GHz. The generated dual-wavelength laser amplified by EDFA could be converted to a corresponding radio frequency through a high-speed photodetector.
