ABSTRACT:
A wavelength tuning device of the invention tunes the reflected wavelength of a fiber Bragg grating, and includes: an optical fiber (102) in which a fiber Bragg grating (106) is formed; a base member (104) to which the optical fiber (102is fixed; a first temperature sensor (112) that detects a temperature of the base member (104); a thermo-module (116) that adjust the temperature of the base member (104) such that the temperature detected by the first temperature sensor (112) is maintained at a desired temperature; a second temperature sensor (126) that detects an external temperature of the wavelength tuning device; and a temperature controller (130) that controls the thermo-module (116) such that the temperature of the base member (104) is maintained at the desired temperature based on the external temperature detected by the second temperature sensor (126).
