Abstract
An optical apparatus including a tunable master laser from which all or some of a beam is injected into at least one “slave ” laser having a cavity with an amplifier medium and a dynamic holographic medium that forms a self-adapted spectral filter to maintain oscillation of the slave laser at a wavelength imposed by the master laser during injection after injection has stopped.
