Abstract

In this paper we present results of our stabilization scheme for an optical fiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer with a diode laser as light source. It is developed for compensating the drift path difference produced by external parameters as the environmental temperature. The optoelectronic setup in which the interference signal is fed back to the injection current of the laser diode is investigated in order to obtain a stabilized system. Details on parameter characterization, system design and the results observed are given.
