Abstract
A laser device includes a laser configured to generate laser light and a laser control module configured to receive at least a portion of the laser light generated by the laser, to generate a control signal and to feed the control signal back to the laser for stabilizing the frequency, wherein the laser control module includes a tunable frequency discriminating element which is preferably continuously frequency tunable, and where the laser control module is placed outside the laser cavity.
Claims15
A laser device, comprising:
- a tunable laser comprising a laser cavity and a laser control module,
- wherein:
- the tunable laser is configured to generate laser light having a center frequency,
- the laser control module is configured to receive at least a portion of the laser light generated by the laser, to generate a control signal and to feed the control signal back to the laser for stabilizing the frequency, and
- the laser control module comprises a frequency discriminating element comprising a ring resonator.
