Abstract
A technique for stabilizing the center frequency of a short cavity DBR fibe r grating laser is reported. This method employs an all-fiber unbalanced-ar m scanning Michelson interferometer as a frequency discriminator. Long-term frequency fluctuation of the tested fiber grating laser was improved from +/- 480 MHz to less than 30 MHz.
