    Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided an optical path-changing device having one or more curved waveguides, which not only can change an optical path at a large angle close to a perpendicular direction after light or an optical signal has been incident and reflected, but also can change the optical path in various directions, such as for straight pass, left turn, and right turn. An optical path-changing device having one or more curved waveguides according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a first waveguide (11) formed in a straight line. A second waveguide (12) is configured to branch from the first waveguide in a first direction and formed in a shape of curved line. A first reflector (21) is arranged in a region in which the second waveguide branches from the first waveguide.

    Abstract: An optical module package using a bidirectional polished silica optical waveguide is disclosed. An optical module package may include a planar optical waveguide that connects at least one aperture of each of the optical components and including inclined surfaces at both ends thereof to allow light, which exits from at least one aperture of any one optical component of the optical components to be subjected to optical coupling in a vertical direction through total reflection on an inclined surface corresponding to the at least one aperture of the any one optical component to cause the light to travel in a horizontal direction, and allows the light to be subjected to optical coupling to at least one aperture of a remaining optical component in the vertical direction through total reflection on the inclined surface corresponding to the at least one aperture of the remaining optical component.

    Abstract: A silicon phased array based LiDAR device that measures a distance using a quasi-frequency modulation is disclosed. A LiDAR device according to an exemplary embodiment of the inventive concept includes a light source that generates an optical signal, an optical modulator that generates a first optical signal having a quasi-frequency whose a modulation frequency constantly varies with time by modulating a light intensity of the optical signal, an optical splitter that splits optical power of the first optical signal into a reference optical signal and a transmit (Tx) optical signal, an optical transmitter that receives and emits the Tx optical signal toward an object, an optical receiver that receives a receive (Rx) optical signal reflected from the object and transfers the Rx optical signal, an optical coupler that mixes the reference optical signal and the Rx optical signal, a balanced photodetector that detects an intermediate frequency from the optical signal transferred from the optical coupler and a distance calculator that obtains distance information by measuring the intermediate frequency.
