Abstract:
A hybrid external cavity laser and a method for configuring the laser having a stabilized wavelength is disclosed. The laser comprises a semiconductor gain section and a volume Bragg grating, wherein a laser emission from the semiconductor gain section is based on a combination of a reflectivity of a front facet of the semiconductor gain section and a reflectivity of the volume Bragg grating and the reflectivity of the semiconductor gain section and the volume Brag grating are insufficient by themselves to support the laser emission. The hybrid cavity laser further comprises an etalon that provides further wavelength stability.

Claim (Index 11):
The device of  claim 1  further comprising:\n a discrete etalon element positioned between said front facet of said semiconductor gain section and said volume Bragg grating, wherein said etalon is tilted at an angle to the light emission, said etalon element comprising:\n a front optical surface; and \n a rear optical surface, each of said front and rear optical surfaces coated with partially reflective coatings, said reflective coatings determining allowed resonances of the discrete etalon, wherein one of said allowed resonances is substantially coincident with said substantially coincident ones of said plurality of first resonances and said plurality of second resonances.
