Widely-tunable and narrow-linewidth hybrid-integrated diode laser at 637 nm (2404.05325v1)

Published 8 Apr 2024 in physics.optics

Abstract: We present hybrid-integrated extended cavity diode lasers tunable around 637 nm, with a gain-wide spectral coverage of 8 nm. This tuning range allows addressing the zero-phonon line of nitrogen vacancy centers and includes the wavelength of HeNe lasers (633 nm). The lasers provide wide mode-hop free tuning up to 97 GHz and a narrow intrinsic linewidth down to 10 kHz. The maximum output power is 2.5 mW in a single-mode fiber, corresponding to an on-chip power of 4.0 mW. Full integration and packaging in a standard housing with fiber pigtails provide high intrinsic stability and will enable integration into complex optical systems.
