Method and Apparatus for Controlling the Polarization of an Optical Signal

總結

A method of controlling the state of polarization of an optical signal includes injecting the optical signal into a laser diode and matching the wavelength of the optical signal to a longitudinal mode of the laser diode. A stabilizer signal can also be injected in to the laser diode. The wavelength of the stabilizer signal is matched a first longitudinal mode of the laser diode a longitudinal mode of the laser diode to the optical signal.
