Abstract

Volume holographic gratings (VHGs) are the key components for producing laser diodes (LDs) with a temperature-stabilized wavelength and narrowed linewidth. We review the unique characteristics of these gratings that make them useful for this application as well as various alternative approaches of stabilizing LDs and their performance.
