Abstract

A pumping system for a laser source includes a pump diode that emits a pump beam having a central wavelength that varies with temperature. A selective mirror having a plurality of spectral reflectivity peaks, corresponding to a plurality of predetermined wavelengths, locks the operation of the pump diode onto one of the predetermined wavelengths in accordance with temperature.
