    Abstract: An optical module includes a light source. The light source can be a swept wavelength light source, and optical module includes a wavemeter. The wavemeter includes a wavemeter tap capable of directing a wavemeter portion of light produced by the light source away from a main beam, a wavelength selective filter arranged to receive the wavemeter portion, a first wavemeter detector arranged to measure a transmitted radiation intensity of radiation transmitted through the filter, and a second wavemeter detector arranged to measure a non-transmitted radiation intensity of radiation not transmitted through but reflected by the filter. In addition, an optical coherence tomography apparatus includes the optical module.

    Abstract: Superluminescent light emitting diode, SLED, devices and modules are provided. A multi-wavelength SLED device is fabricated by sequentially depositing adjacent epitaxial stacks onto a substrate to form a monolithic chip structure. Each epitaxial stack includes n-type layers, active layers and p-type layers. A ridge is formed in the p-type layers between the end facets of the chip to induce a waveguiding region in the active layers. Different ones of the epitaxial stacks emit at different wavelength ranges. A module is made by packaging one of the above SLED devices with another SLED device, with one inverted relative to the other to form a triangle of emitters as viewed end on, for example a triangle of red, green and blue emitters. The SLED devices and modules may find use in projection, endoscopic, fundus imaging and optical coherence tomography systems.

    Abstract: A module accommodates multiple superluminescent light emitting diodes, SLEDs, 12r, 12g and 12b. The SLEDs are arranged in an enclosure and output respective light beams to propagate into free space within the enclosure. The individual light beams from the SLED sources are combined into a single beam path within the enclosure using beam combiners 40r-g, 40rg-b. Each beam combiner is realized as a planar optical element, the back side of which is arranged to receive a SLED beam and route it through the optical element to the front side where it is combined with another SLED beam that is incident on and reflected by the front side. The free-space propagating combined beam is output from the module via an optical fiber 42 (or through a window).

    Abstract: A low power, side-emitting semiconductor laser diode is provided. The laser diode is formed from a semiconductor heterostructure having an active layer sandwiched between an n-type layer and a p-type layer, wherein the active layer forms a gain medium of width W. Front and back reflectors of reflectivity Rf and Rb are arranged on opposing side facets of the semiconductor heterostructure part to form a cavity of length L containing at least a part of the active layer which thus forms the gain medium for the laser diode, the gain medium having an internal loss αi. To achieve stable, low power operation close to threshold, the laser diode is configured with the following parameter combination: width W: 1 μm≤W≤2 μm; cavity length L: 100 μm≤L≤600 μm; internal loss αi: 0 cm−1≤αi≤30 cm−1; back reflectivity Rb: 100≥Rb≥80%; and front reflectivity Rf: 100≥Rf≥60%.
