ABSTRACT:
A tunable semiconductor laser including a Fabry-Perot filter and an electrode array is disclosed. The propagation direction of the light beam in the cavity can be consecutively shifted applying electric field or current to the electrode and tuning can consecutively performed over the wide wavelength band by the consecutive shift of the angle of the intra cavity laser beam.
