Frequency metrology for wavelength division multiplexed optical fiber communications

Published

Author(s)

Sarah L. Gilbert

Abstract

Wavelength calibration is essential to ensure channel stability and characterize optical components for wavelength division multiplexed optical fiber communications. I will discuss the optical frequency metrology requirements, future trends, and our research in this area.
