Abstract

We present a method of stabilization of the mean wavelength of a superluminescent erbium-doped-fiber source which is obtained with a fiber Bragg grating acting as a broad spectral filter. This allows one to get 10 ppm stability over temperature. Excess intensity noise is reduced with a biasing phase modulation of the FOG about +/- (pi) radian instead of the usual +/- (pi) /2 radian.
