摘要:
This invention provides an optical signal processing apparatus capable of size reduction. When signal light with multiple wavelengths &lgr;1 to &lgr;4 is collimated by and output from a fiber collimator, the signal light components with multiple wavelengths &lgr;1 to &lgr;4 are diffracted by a diffraction grating at diffraction angles corresponding to the wavelengths and separated for the respective wavelengths. The separated signal light components of the respective wavelengths are output to spatially different optical paths. The signal light components having the wavelengths &lgr;n are deflected at their optical paths by prisms to increase the optical path interval and then input to fiber collimators.

An optical signal processing apparatus has a diffraction grating element, first condenser lens, Faraday rotation elements, polarization beam splitter, λ/2 plate, second condenser lens, third condenser lens, and diffraction grating element. The magnitude of a magnetic field of each of the Faraday rotation elements is controlled on the basis of an externally input control signal. The rotation angle of the plane of polarization of signal light is set to 0 or λ/2 in accordance with the magnitude of the magnetic field. Each Faraday rotation element receives signal light having wavelengths λ1 to λ4, which has arrived from the first condenser lens, and outputs the signal light as a polarized light component in the first azimuth (parallel to the z-axis direction) or second azimuth (parallel to the y-axis direction).

An object of the present invention is to provide a fixing structure for an optical element, which structure enables easy adjustment of a direction of the optical element when the optical element is fixed to a substrate. In order to achieve this object, a fixing member 31 made of metal is fixed to a substrate such that the fixing member holds an optical element therein and the bottom surface of the fixing member is spherical so that the spherical bottom surface touches the edge of the opening of a fixing portion on the substrate. The fixing member holds the optical element. A part of the surface of the fixing member is spherical such that the spherical part of the surface touches the edge of the opening of a fixing portion on the substrate. An optical device in which an optical element is fixed to a substrate with the fixing member mentioned above is also provided.

An optical signal processor, capable of eliminating design change of lens optical systems, it is fabricating by selecting one or more optical waveguides, each having a mode field diameter such that a desired band width of the transmission characteristics of the whole optical signal processor with respect to the light beam are selected as the input and output optical waveguides. When one optical waveguide is selected, the selected optical waveguide is applied as a common optical waveguide corresponding to both input and output optical waveguides. When two optical waveguides are selected, one is applied to the input optical waveguide and the other is applied to the output optical waveguide.

The present invention is related to a method of fabricating an optical signal processor capable of eliminating design change of lens optical systems and so on. The optical signal processor includes input and output optical waveguides, and further includes a first lens optical system, a spatial wavelength-dividing element, a second lens optical system, and a spatial optical modulator, respectively arranged on an optical path between the input and output optical waveguides. For fabricating the optical signal processor, one or more optical waveguides each having a mode field diameter such that a desired band width of the transmission characteristics of the whole optical signal processor with respect to the light beam are selected as the input and output optical waveguides. When one optical waveguide is selected, the selected optical waveguide is applied as a common optical waveguide corresponding to both input and output optical waveguides. On the other hand, when two optical waveguides are selected, one is applied to the input optical waveguide and the other is applied to the output optical waveguide.
