Using one of the absorption lines of $^{13}C_2H_2$ molecules near the zero dispersion wavelength(1549.49nm) of dispersion shifted fiber, we stabilized center frequency of an optical fiber Fabry-Perot filter. The free spectral range of the filter is 100 GHz for 100 GHz channel allocation. For equi-spaced three channel multiplexing, channel locking of three DFB-LDs to transmission peaks of the fiber Fabry-Perot filter was tried. To investigate the effect of dithering current applied to each DFB-LD, the change of DFB-LD linewidth was measured.

간섭계의 광원으로 현재 레이저를 주로 사용하고 있다. 이러한 간섭계용 레이저의 조건은 선폭(linewidth) 이 좁아야 하고, 중심 주파수가 안정화 되어야 한다. 특히 거리용 간섭계의 경우, 주파수 안정화되어 있는 레이저가 사용되어 측정 불확도를 낮춘다. 그러나 점차 다축을 측정하기 위한, 또는 보다 넓은 영역을 측정하기 위해서는 보다 높은 출력의 레이저를 요하고 있다. 그러나 현재의 간섭계용 레이저는 헬륨네온 레이저로서 단일 모드 기준으로 2 mW 이하의 출력을 보이고 있어서 응용 면에 있어서 제약을 받는다. (중략)

A spot-size converted Fabry-Perot laser diode (LD) was flip-chip bonded to a silica-terraced planar lightwave circuit(PLC) platform to examine the effect of the silica terrace on the heat dissipation of the LD module. From the measurement of the light-current characteristics, it was discovered that the silica terrace itself is not a strong thermal barrier, but the encapsulation of the integrated LD with an index-matching polymer resin more or less deteriorates the heat dissipation.

20 GHz and 40 GHz micro/millimeter-wave photonic pulse trains have been generated from a fiber ring laser with a semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) by injecting 2 GHz gain-switched Fabry-Perot laser diode (GS-FPLD) output. To achieve efficient cross-gain modulation in the SOA at 20 GHz and 40 GHz, individual lasing modes of the 2 GHz GS-FPLD output separated to 25 and 50 picoseconds respectively by passing dispersion compensating fibers.

In this paper, we constructed the Littman type and fixed Littrow type tunable external-cavity diode laser systems. The laser output, which is the 0th-order diffracted beam from the diffraction grating in an external cavity, was the single longitudinal mode. Its FWHM was measured as less than 9MHz. With the diode driving current of 140mA and operating temperature of $25^{\circ}C$, the coarse tuning range of 5.375nm was measured for the Littman type, and of 13.65nm was measured for the fixed Littrow type. A fine tuning experiment in which an external mirror was rotated by a PZT driven by a sawtooth wave was performed, and its tuning range of 0.042nm was measured for both types. The fixed Littrow type tunable external-cavity diode laser system was an improvement on the conventional Littrow type tunable laser system in which the output direction varies due to the grating embedded in the mirror plate.

We demonstrate a Pr³⁺:YLF 639.7-nm laser with single-frequency output based on the Q-switched pre-lase technology, pumped by a fiber-coupled GaN blue laser diode. The pre-lase technology is realized by the step-type loss of the acousto-optical Q-switched device. The conclusions of the theoretical research are verified experimentally. The mode-suppression ratio was 44 dB at the single-frequency laser output. Detection by interferometer verified the realization of the stable single-frequency laser. In addition, the emission spectrum had a linewidth of 139.9 MHz, measured by Fabry-Perot interferometer. The single-frequency laser's single-peak power was over 19.7 W with 98.8-ns pulse duration, obtained under an absorption power of 1.74 W.

We propose a low noise broadband light source (BLS) and investigate a cost-effective wavelength division multiplexing-passive optical network (WDM-PON) for the convergence of broadcasting and data service. The proposed BLS is used for an injection light of wavelength-locked Fabry-Perot laser diodes (F-P LD) and helps the color-free operation of dense WDM-PON (DWDM-PON). In addition, we apply this BLS to a optical source for overlay of digital broadcasting channel on the WDM-PON.

A new wavelength tunable laser source based on a self-seeded F-P LD for a WDM-PON system has been proposed in this paper. The proposed laser source has a merit of the wavelength tunable range of approximately 20 nm with very simple setup. The measured minimum relative intensity noise(RIN) was approximately -124 dB/Hz and the possibility of 10 Gb/s external modulation was showed.

Narrowing the spectral linewidth and improving the wavelength stability of high-power laser diodes (HPLDs) are both in high demand for rapidly maturing industrial laser applications. In this study, we investigate the spectral behavior of a commercial HPLD bar module composed of 19 laser diodes (LDs) in a single-layered bar with a built-in volume Bragg grating (VBG) and an additional cascaded VBG. Optical loss due to the extra cascaded VBG is kept below 5% when the optical output is 5 W or more. The full width at half maximum of the Fabry-Perot peak from the cascaded VBG is reduced to about 12.4% and 29.1% at the edge (1^st LD) and center (10^th LD) of the HPLD bar module respectively, compared to using only a built-in VBG at an optical power of 10 W or more. In addition, fine wavelength tuning is achieved by temperature control of the extra VBG, and the obtained wavelength-tuning range amounts to about 10.6 pm/K.
