Abstract
A wavelength stabilization apparatus and method for a superfluorescent source comprising a SFS (superfluorescent source) comprising a fiber with a core doped with lzaing material. The SFS source produces SFS light with an SFS wavelength when pumped with pump light from a pump light source having a pump light wavelength. An output controller responds to a sample of the SFS light and operates to maximize the power of th esample of SFS light by automatically adjusting the pump light wavelength. The output controller also has a pump power controller responsive to a sample of the pump light from the pump light source for stabilizing the output power of the sample of the pump light with respect to a predetermined reference output power level.
