Abstract
A semiconductor source spectroscopy system controls optical power variation of the tunable signal due to polarization dependent loss in the system and thus improves the noise performance of the system. It relies on using polarization control between the source and the sample and/or the sample and the detector.
Claims10
A semiconductor source spectroscopy system, comprising:
- a semiconductor source for generating a signal for illuminating a sample;
- a detector for detecting a signal from a sample generated by the illumination of the sample by the semiconductor source;
- and
- polarization controlling fiber in the optical link between the semiconductor source and the detector.
