摘要:
An optical wavelength sweeping apparatus having a laser diode with an active region, and a coupled pulse generator is disclosed. The pulse generator is configured and operable to provide current drive pulses of relatively short duration and high amplitude to the laser diode to selectively and rapidly heat the active region and the immediate vicinity and produce a rapid wavelength sweep of emitted optical radiation. Methods of driving a laser diode, and measurement systems are disclosed, as are other aspects.
