Abstract

The longitudinal mode spacing of an external cavity semiconductor laser is dramatically reduced if a high-reflectivity etalon is inserted in the external cavity. By measuring the reduction in the longitudinal mode beat frequency using a microwave spectrum analyzer, a quick and precise method for determining the coating reflectivity is demonstrated.
