Abstract

In order to tune an oscillation wavelength of a semiconductor laser diode to a target wavelength, the amount of change of a wavelength to the amount of change of a wavelength varying item is determined by actual measurement and a basic wavelength coefficient is renewed by using the ratio of both amounts of change as a corrective wavelength coefficient, and thus the characteristic when the wavelength of an actual device is made closer to a target wavelength is utilized.
