Abstract
A laser-based light source includes a laser ( ), two optical detectors ( ), a diffraction grating ( ) mounted in a can ( ), and a controlling circuit ( ). A plurality of parallel grooves ( ) is defined in a bottom face ( ) of the diffraction grating. Each groove has a depth “d.” A groove separation “a” is defined between any two adjacent grooves. A groove cycle “b” is defined as a sum of the distance a and a width of any one groove. A light intensity of light beams depends on the values of “d”, “a” and “b”. By selecting a desired duty cycle f=a/b for the diffraction grating, the reflected light beams are converged into ±1 order light beams. Almost all the ±1 order light beams are collected by the optical detectors, notwithstanding variations in operational temperature. The controlling circuit receives feedback signals from the optical detectors.
