Abstract: A laser module includes a gain chip, temperature sensors, a case, and a thermoelectric cooler (TEC). The gain chip emits a laser beam. One of the temperature sensors measures a first temperature of the gain chip and is encompassed by the gain chip. The other temperature sensor is adhered to the case and measures a second temperature. The TEC tunes the laser beam emitted by the gain chip to a desired wavelength by varying the first temperature of the gain chip through a set of third temperatures for various values of the second temperature. The set of third temperatures is selected from various values of the first temperature such that the laser beam emitted at the set of third temperatures is mode-hop free.

Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented systems, apparatuses, and processes that perform homomorphic computations on encrypted third-party data within a distributed computing environment. For example, an apparatus receives a homomorphic public key and encrypted transaction data characterizing an exchange of data from a computing system, and encrypts modelling data associated with a first predictive model using the homomorphic public key. The apparatus may perform homomorphic computations that apply the first predictive model to the encrypted transaction data in accordance with the encrypted first modelling data, and transmit an encrypted first output of the homomorphic computations to the computing system, which may decrypt the encrypted first output using a homomorphic private key and generate decrypted output data indicative of a predicted likelihood that the data exchange represents fraudulent activity.
