摘要:
In at least one embodiment, the wavelength-tunable light source (1) comprises an output source (2) suitable for generating an electromagnetic beam (R) during operation. The light source (1) further comprises a wavelength-selective first filter element (5) disposed downstream of the output source (2). The light source (1) also comprises a first amplifier medium (3) disposed downstream of the first filter element (5) and suitable for at least partially amplifying the beam (R) emitted by the output source (2). The light source (1) further comprises at least one wavelength-selective second filter element (6) disposed downstream of the first amplifier medium (3), wherein the second filter element (6) has an optical distance (L) to the first filter element (5). The first (5) and the at least one second filter element (6) can be tuned using a control unit (11) that comprises the light source (1). In the process, the filter elements (5, 6) are tuned such that the first (5) and the second filter element (6) are transparent for part (P) of the beam (R) in a time delay (T) relative to one another, wherein the delay (T) is equal to the quotient of the optical distance (L) and the speed of light in a vacuum (c).
