| description | The present invention relates to a method to tune a wavelength of a coherent light signal emitted by a tunable laser, the tunable laser comprising:a cavity, the cavity including:a gain medium,an optical tunable filter,a first and a second mirrors, one of which is partially reflective,wherein the optical tunable filter includes:a first and a second electrodes,a liquid crystal,the method comprising:applying a voltage difference between the first and second electrodes to apply an electric field to the liquid crystal; wherein applying a voltage difference includes:applying the voltage difference for at least a driving time interval lasting less than 1 μs; andvarying the voltage difference applied between the first and second electrodes within the driving time interval so that a maximum applied voltage difference is reached and said maximum applied voltage is above 0.1 kV. |
