  • Abstract
    Continuous wave cavity ring-down spectroscopy using an electronically switched telecom distributed feedback laser module is demonstrated. By adding a compensation waveform current to the step-function switched laser current the laser wavelength stabilisation time is reduced to about 4 ms corresponding to a 200 Hz utmost ring-down transient repetition rate.
