Abstract

The invention discloses an on-line wavelength calibration device and a method of a DBR (distributed bragg reflector) tunable laser. The device comprises a coupler, an interferometer, a photoelectric detector, a signal acquisition and processing circuit and a laser driving circuit. A reflection spectrum of the interferometer is of a cosine type; output wavelengths of the DBR tunable laser are set at a pi / 2 phase of the reflection spectrum of the interferometer; when an optical signal acquired by the signal acquisition and processing circuit deviates from the pi / 2 phase, a newly generated control parameter of the DBR tunable laser is transmitted to the laser driving circuit; and the laser driving circuit changes control current of the DBR tunable laser, so that the output wavelengths of theDBR tunable laser are locked at the pi / 2 phase of the reflection spectrum of the interferometer all the time. According to the device and the method, the interferometer is introduced for monitoring and feedback control of the wavelengths of the DBR tunable laser, and a wavelength control error during long-term usage of the DBR tunable laser can be effectively decreased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of wavelength calibration of tunable lasers, in particular to an on-line wavelength calibration device and method for a DBR tunable laser applied to a fiber grating demodulator. Background technique [0002] As a new type of wide tunable semiconductor laser, DBR tunable laser has the advantages of wide wavelength tuning range, fast tuning speed, low cost, high output power, good stability, and easy integration with other devices. It is a new generation of WDM systems and Key optoelectronic devices for all-optical networks. At the same time, in the field of optical fiber sensing, domestic and foreign companies have also successively developed fiber grating demodulator products based on DBR tunable lasers. [0003] The DBR tunable laser obtains the curve between the laser wavelength and the control current through pre-calibration of the wavelength. Using the calibration curve can ensure short-term and room temperature ...
