The Optical Spectrum Analyzer
A very simple diagram (see Figure 1)
illustrates the basic concept through
the familiar prism. Light passes
through a prism where it is split,
being distributed according to its
wavelength. Next, a variable-width
f slit is used to select only the
wavelength desired, which is focused
I
on a photodetector. This allows the
OSA to measure optical power levels
versus wavelength. Figure 1. Basic Concept of Optical Spectrum Analyzer

creasing frequency. (Yes, one could
say that "it sweeps backwards," but
we do not use that term.) The range
of the OSA is 600 nm to 1700 nm. As
a comparison, the visible wavelength
range is approximately 300 nm to 650
nm (but varies somewhat from indi-
vidual to individual). It is interesting
to note that in lightwave, longer
wavelength corresponds to higher
performance. So sweeping from short
wavelength to long wavelength is
analogous with pushing to higher and
higher microwave frequencies.

OSA Resolution
But if the OSA is conceptually much
like a conventional spectrum
analyzer, why is it not used to see
modulation? It could be, depending on
the relative bandwidths involved.
The OSA has "resolutions" (like resol-
Figure 2. Fabry-Perot Laser Test Measurements
ution bandwidths) from 0.08 nm to
10 nm. A common wavelength for op-
tical work is 1300 nm, which is about
230 THz. At this wavelength, a resol-
ution of 0.1 nm is about 18 GHz. So,
modulation can be easily seen if its
bandwidth is considerably wider than
18 GHz. Optical modulators that have
a bandwidth this wide are not yet
commonly found. Most RF modula-
tion of a laser is only a few GHz in
bandwidth, so all the modulation in-
formation falls within the resolution
of the OSA. It is like trying to look at
1kHz sidebands in a 1MHz resolution
bandwidth. Therefore, the OSA does
not replace the LSA; you need both.

OSA Measurements
So what measurements are made with
an OSA? Certainly it can be used to
see at what wavelength(s) an optical
device is emitting. It also shows what
the relative power levels or power
widths are. This is valuable for white
light sources or infrared LEDs. The
