Notes:
An all-fiber Mach–Zehnder interferometric system has been developed for characterization of tunable semiconductor lasers. The tuning rate, range, and linearity of directly frequency-modulated lasers as well as laser linewidth are measured using the same system. To investigate the features of the system and demonstrate its usefulness, 1.3 μm coupled-cavity lasers, tunable with constant amplitude, were characterized. The effects of optical feedback on laser parameters have also been investigated.
