Diode Laser Wavelength Modulation Methods
Modulating the output power of a laser diode can happen in two ways: by changing the signal input/driving current 1,2 or by alternating the continuous wave output after the light is generated. 2 In laser modulation, the current or voltage varies with time to modulate the output signal from the. Based on Fourier analysis, a theoretical description is given of the harmonics arising from current modulation of a DFB laser with its wavelength scanned through a gas absorption line. It is shown that each harmonic consists of a primary component from the wavelength modulation and two secondary. Diode-Pumped Solid-State (DPSS) lasers, utilize a semiconductor laser diode to pump a solid-state gain medium in order to emit light of wavelength normally unattainable by laser diodes alone.
