| Zusammenfassung: | This invention relates generally to the field of high speed optical sources for dense wavelength division multiplexed (DWDM) transmission systems, and specifically to a monolithically integrated light source and frequency discriminator.
A monolithically integrated light source and frequency discriminator has a section in which a single frequency optical signal is produced and a section in which the frequency is sensed. The output of the optical discriminator is connected to a controller for stabilizing the output frequency of the light source. |
