Abstract

This paper reports extended spectral tuning in PPLN-based PE-SROs. The devices described exhibit coarse wavelength tuning from 2.7 to 5.3 μm and smooth single-frequency scanning ranges of over 10 GHz. The latter is accomplished by a novel dual-cavity configuration in which mode-hopping is suppressed.
