Abstract

See full text

A controller for use with sampled grating distributed Bragg reflector (SGDBR) lasers is presented. An exemplary controller includes a table of settings representing a control surface, each setting corresponding to a separate operating point of the SGDBR laser, a first mirror current controller and a second mirror current controller. The first mirror controller and the second mirror current controller respectively control a first mirror current and a second mirror current about an estimated extremum point of the control surface to substantially maintain alignment between each of a first mirror and a second mirror, and an associated cavity mode. The first mirror current and the second mirror current can be locked at a substantially fixed distance from the extremum of the control surface.
