ABSTRACT:
A reference light source device includes a first laser diode emitting a reference light, a harmonic generating unit for generating an nth harmonic of the reference light, where n is an integer, a light generating unit for generating a light signal having a waveform equal to that of the nth harmonic of the reference light, and a photodetector for combining the nth harmonic and the light signal and for generating a first electric signal corresponding to a beat signal obtained by combining the nth harmonic and the light signal. Further, the source device includes a local signal generating unit for generating a local signal, a phase comparator for generating a control signal corresponding to a phase difference between the first electric signal and the local signal, and a driving unit for driving the first laser diode according to the control signal so that a frequency of the beat signal is equal to that of the local signal.
