WAVELENGTH SHIFT CORRECTION TECHNIQUE FOR A LASER

摘要

A wavelength shift correction system for a laser system is provided for correcting wavelength chirps. This wavelength shift correction system includes a learning algorithm (44) that learns characteristics of a wavelength chirp from a laser (34) and a computer system (46) that executes the learning algorithm and provides wavelength correction control signals based on the learned characteristics to reduce the magnitude of the wavelength shift of the present wavelength chirp and subsequent wavelength chirps.
