Abstract

Experimental results are reported on an optical frequency synthesizer for use in dynamic dense wavelength-division-multiplexing networks, based on a tuneable laser in an optical injection phase-locked loop for rapid wavelength locking. The source combines high stability (<1-kHz channel frequency error over 5-K temperature change), with high output power (similar to2 dBm), wide tuning range (40 nm), high spurious suppression (>50 dB), narrow linewidth (10 MHz), and fast wavelength switching (<10 ns).
