2. 大綱 Introduction of OSA Basic block diagram Types of OSA - Interferometer- based optical spectrum analyzers ( 略 ) - Diffraction- grating- based optical spectrum analyzers Monochromator - Diffraction grating equation - Resolution / Grating resolve power - Compare of single / double monochromator Basic operation of OSA

3. OSA-Optical spectrum analyzer The OSA is used to show power levels as a function of wavelength. The range of the OSA is typically 600 nm to 1700 nm. The OSA has resolution bandwidths typically from 0.06 nm to 10 nm.

4. Basic block diagram

5. Tunable bandpass filter Prism-based optical spectrum analyzer Diffraction-grating-based optical spectrum analyzer Monochromator B: entrance slit C,E : concave mirror D : diffraction grating F: exit slit G : output light with “single” color

6. Diffraction grating equation Monochromator : The grating is rotated to select different wavelengths. (fixed position of entrance & exit slit)

7. Dispersion and Bandpass f : effective focal length

8. Resolution-Rayleigh criterion Two wavelength are just resolved when the maximum of one lies at the first minimum of the other. UnresolvedRayleigh criterionResolved

9. Grating resolving power δλ : smallest resolvable wavelength difference (resolution) m : diffraction order N : the number of grating blaze W : the ruled width of the grating

10. Double Monochromator

11. Compare of single/double monochromator Double monochromator Higher dynamic range : Filter shape is specified in terms of dynamic range. Additive dispersion : The reciprocal linear dispersion of the entire system is the sum of the reciprocal linear dispersions of each monochromator. Reduced stray light(unwanted light)

13. Basic operation of OSA Step : 1. Connecting Optical Fiber 2. Switching Power On 3. Set the Center wavelength 4. Set the Span (sweep width)

14. Set the Resolution Set the peak level wavelength as the Center wavelength. Press the Peak → Center Center of shortcut key to set the wavelength at the peak level to be displayed at the center of the screen. Set the peak level as the reference level
