    Abstract: A spectral image input device has an image forming optical system for forming an image of image light on an image forming surface and a phase difference generating unit disposed anterior to the image forming surface in the direction of image light travel. The phase difference generating unit constitutes, sequentially in the direction of image light travel, a polarizer for transmitting only polarized light in a specific direction, an optical element formed of a solid material having a birefringence, and arranged such that the principal refraction index axis is inclined 45null relative to the polarization angle of the analyzer, the optical element generating a phase difference in accordance with the wavelength of the image light based on the difference in the physical thickness of the optical element in the direction of image light travel and an analyzer for transmitting only the image light of a polarization angle of 90null relative to the direction of the polarized light of the polarizer.

    Abstract: An optical spectrum analyzer involves a swept local oscillator signal that is depolarized before the swept local oscillator signal is combined with an input signal. An embodiment of a system for optical spectrum analysis includes a depolarizer, an optical coupler, and a heterodyne receiver. The depolarizer has an input to receive a swept local oscillator signal and an output for outputting a depolarized swept local oscillator signal. The optical coupler has a first input and a second input, the first input receiving an input signal, the second input being optically connected to the depolarizer to receive the depolarized swept local oscillator signal. The optical coupler also has an output for outputting a combined optical signal that includes the input signal and the depolarized swept local oscillator signal. The heterodyne receiver has an input for receiving the combined optical signal from the optical coupler and an output for outputting an electrical signal representative of the combined optical signal. In an embodiment, the swept local oscillator signal is depolarized such that the average polarization state of the swept local oscillator signal contains no preferential polarization state.
