Abstract :
The lasers for the WDM system with the flexible grid need to have highly accurate wavelength tuning and stability. Instead of using optical filters, we propose the microwave photonics approach with photo-mixing technique and the laser current controlling. Experimental results show that the optical frequency is stabilized with the accuracy of 0.05GHz.
