Problems solved by technology

[0012] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a working point adjustment method and adjustment device of a directly tuned external cavity laser, to solve the problem that when the existing DFB laser working point adjustment method is directly used for a directly tuned external cavity laser, the direct tuned external cavity laser cannot be guaranteed. When the wavelength of the output light is the nominal wavelength, the die temperature is also at the correct temperature point, which can ensure that the directly regulated external cavity laser works at the correct die temperature, and effectively play the advantages of the directly regulated external cavity laser

Abstract

A workpoint adjusting method of straightening exocoel laser is provided, the processes are that: firstly, the output light efficiency of the straightening exocoel laser is nominal output efficiency; secondly, the temperature of a tube core is adjusted to make the output light wavelength reach the nominal wavelength; thirdly, the corresponding adjustment quantity value of the tube core when reaching the nominal wavelength in the previous step; fourthly, testing process; fifthly, if the temperature of middle tube core is correct, when reducing the temperature of the tube core in single direction continuously, the changes of the wavelength is linetype, if the temperature of the tube core is correct, otherwise, incorrect; sixthly, if the temperature of the tube core is correct, the recording value is recovered; if incorrect, returning to the second process; seventhly, the extinction ratio of the laser is adjusted. An adjusting device which is composed of a straightening exocoel laser, a laser drive circuit, an automatic control circuit and an automatic efficiency control circuit is provided. Aiming to the characteristic relation between the temperature of the tube core and the wavelength of the straightening exocoel laser, the adjusting processes are provided, therefore ensuring the transmission performance and the adaptation on light transmission system.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a direct adjustment external cavity laser for important components in an optical transmission system, in particular to a method and an adjustment device for adjusting the working point of the direct adjustment external cavity laser. Background technique [0002] Lasers are important components in optical transmission systems. DFB (Distributed Feed Back) lasers are mostly used in high-speed optical transmission systems for long-distance transmission. The specific structure of this laser is the wavelength selection part (Bragg grating). Integrated in the active area. However, with the advancement of laser technology, the direct-tuning external cavity laser whose wavelength selection part is located in the passive area outside the laser material has also begun to be successfully commercialized in the field of optical communications. A typical example is the 2.5Gb / s long-distance direct-current laser produced by K2. Adjust the external ...
