Abstrakt

To perform measurements and experiments with a unique new type of semiconductor laser, a so called modulated grating Y-Branch laser, a custom experimentation system was developed. The system consists fo driver and protection electronics for the delicate and expensive laser, which are controlled by a Virtex 5 FPGA. This allows a high degree of flexibility even for experiments involving high speed signals. The FPGA is controlled via a LabView program which performs the more complicated routines of laser control as well as the data acquisition. Integrated into the program is also the control of auxiliary measurement equipment such as a optical spectrum analyzer which allow for expample measurements of the tuning characteristics of the device undet test.
