Abstract: A wavelength selection method for a tunable laser includes: obtaining a target wavelength; and calculating target resistance values of two thermistors, respectively, corresponding to the target wavelength. Each of the two thermistors is used to monitor the temperature of a corresponding one of two wavelength selection components. Each of the target resistance values is calculated according to a relationship between a wavelength drift and a resistance change of the corresponding thermistor and according to an initial wavelength and an initial resistance value of the corresponding thermistor corresponding to the initial wavelength. The method further includes: heating the two wavelength selection components to control their temperatures until real-time resistance values of the two thermistors reach the target resistance values, respectively; and stabilizing the real-time resistance values at the target resistance values and outputting a laser beam having the target wavelength.

Abstract: An optical receiving assembly, a method for controlling the same, and an optical module are provided. The optical receiving assembly includes an optical receiving port, an adjustable optical path deflection assembly, a semiconductor optical amplifier, an optical detector, and a controller. An optical signal received by the optical receiving port is incident onto the semiconductor optical amplifier after a deflection angle of the optical signal is adjusted.

The controller controls the adjustable optical path deflection assembly to adjust the deflection angle according to the changes of the electrical signal strength, so as to adjust a coupling efficiency of the optical signal coupled to the semiconductor optical amplifier and maintain the electrical signal output by the optical detector within a preset range.
