    摘要: An optical node for optical burst transport includes optical components operable to transmit and receive optical signals over an optical transmission medium. The optical components include a demultiplexer that is operable to receive a wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) optical signal at an input port and to separate the WDM optical signal into two or more constituent wavelength signals, and a switching matrix that includes one or more electro-optic switches. Each electro-optic switch is operable to receive a wavelength signal and switch the signal to one of two outputs, and the outputs include an output port of the optical node and one or more drop output ports of the optical node.

    摘要: According to one embodiment, an apparatus for deflecting light beams comprises an input deflector and one or more Bragg gratings. The input deflector receives light beams from input channels, and deflects each light beam to an initial deflection angle. A Bragg grating deflects at least one light beam from the initial deflection angle to an increased deflection angle, where the increased deflection angle is at least closer to an output channel than the initial deflection angle.

    摘要: An apparatus comprises one or more electro-optical coupling modules. An electro-optical coupling module comprises a diode, a flexible optical coupling element, a reflective surface, and an optical fiber. The diode performs an electro-optical conversion on a signal. The flexible optical coupling element communicates the signal between the diode and the reflective surface. The reflective surface reflects the signal between the flexible optical coupling element and the optical fiber.
