Abstract

In this paper, the feasibility of employing a fast intensity modulator and a chirped fibre Bragg grating to build a dispersion-tuned mode-locked swept laser (DTML-SS) for OCT at 850 nm is evaluated. Stable mode-locking is achieved by applying 50 ps pulses at 1 GHz to the modulator, obtaining 35 nm tuning range at 10 KHz sweep rate and 1 mm axial range.
