Wave length plate, wavelength filter and wavelength monitor |
摘要 |
On a plate of birefringent crystal made of an LiNbO<SUB>3 </SUB>crystal or an LiTaO<SUB>3 </SUB>crystal, a conductive substance is adhered to the whole periphery of side surfaces of the plate that intersect an incident surface of a laser beam, thereby to form a wave plate. A polarizer is provided at the latter stage of the wave plate. A wavelength is monitored based on an output from the polarizer. With this arrangement, based on the use of the LiNbO<SUB>3 </SUB>crystal or the LiTaO<SUB>3 </SUB>crystal that can be manufactured by a large quantity at low cost, it is possible to obtain polarization characteristics and wavelength discrimination characteristics that are stable against environmental changes such as temperature and external stress, by suppressing the pyroelectric effect and the piezoelectric effect of these materials.
