Although the wavelength meters contain an internal absolute

29、 reference, typically a Helium-Neon laser, calibration is required to achieve the highest accuracies. The instrument is typically used to measure wavelengths other than that of the internal reference. Corrections are made within the instrument for the refractive index of the surrounding air. A preci

30、se description of the calibration conditions must therefore be an integral part of the calibration. This international standard defines all of the steps involved in the calibration process: establishing the calibration conditions, carrying out the calibration, calculating the uncertainty, and report

31、ing the uncertainty, the calibration conditions and the traceability. The calibration procedure describes how to determine the ratio between the value of the input reference wavelength (or the optical frequency) and the wavelength meters result. This ratio is called correction factor. The measuremen

32、t uncertainty of the correction factor is combined following Annex A from uncertainty contributions from the reference meter, the test meter, the setup and the procedure. The calculations go through detailed characterization of individual uncertainties. It is important to know that: a) estimations o

33、f the individual uncertainties are acceptable; b) a detailed uncertainty analysis is only necessary once for each wavelength meter type under test, and that all subsequent calibrations can be based on this one-time analysis; c) some of the individual uncertainties can simply be considered to be part

34、 of a checklist, with an actual value which can be neglected. A number of optical frequency references can be used to provide a traceable optical frequency. These are based on absorption by gas molecules under low pressure and using excited-state opto-galvanic transitions in atoms. Annex E lists the

36、rces that are typical for the fibre-optic communications industry. These sources include Distributed Feedback (DFB) laser diodes, External Cavity lasers and single longitudinal mode fibre-type sources. It is assumed that the optical radiation will be coupled to the wavelength meter by a single-mode

37、optical fibre. The standard describes the calibration of wavelength meters to be performed by calibration laboratories or by wavelength meter manufacturers. This standard is part of the IEC 62129 series on the calibration of wavelength/optical frequency measurement instruments. Refer to IEC 62129 fo
