Abstract
A temperature controlled mounting package for a fiber optic communication laser, mounted within an adapter, which is in thermal contact with a heat exchange element. The heat exchange element may be a thermoelectric cooling element or a resistance heater which maintains the laser within a temperature band. By keeping the temperature bandwidth to 40 degrees Centigrade, the signal variations are held to within 1 dB in fiber-optic applications.
