Abstract: The present application is directed to a tuning arm system for use in a tunable external cavity diode laser system and includes a tuning arm body, at least one prism support coupled to the tuning arm body, at least one component support coupled to the prism support and configured to support at least one optical component therein, the component support manufactured from a magnetic material, and at least one magnetic device positioned proximate to the component support.

Abstract: An external cavity diode laser system includes a thin film filter. The output facet of the laser diode is coated with a partial reflection coating and the cavity side facet is coated with an anti-reflection coating. A roof-top prism or corner cube retroreflector serves as the laser cavity end reflector and provides stability of the wavelength of the output over time. The laser cavity lies between the partial reflective coated facet of the laser diode and retroreflector. A collimating lens and a thin film filter are located between the end reflector and the laser diode cavity side facet. The lasing wavelength can be adjusted during either manufacture or operation by tilting the filter. Also included is thermal compensation in the mounting for the retroreflector to compensate for thermal movement of the laser system cavity.

Abstract: A tunable laser comprising: a foundation including a first side and an oppositely facing second side and including a hole extending from the first side to the second side; a tuning assembly including a base, a fine tuning arm and a rotational flex bearing disposed adjacent the first side of the foundation; wherein the base is disposed adjacent to the first side of the foundation; wherein one end of the flex bearing is secured to the base; wherein the other end of the flex bearing is secured to the fine tuning arm; wherein a portion of the fine tuning arm extends at least partially into the hole; an external cavity laser including a gain medium, a dispersion medium and a reflective member disposed adjacent to the second side of the foundation; wherein the gain medium and the dispersion medium grating are secured in a fixed relation relative to the each other; wherein the reflective member is secured to the portion of the arm extending into the hole; and a piezoelectric device with one end secured to the base a
