    Abstract: A method that allows a plurality of variables to be measured with the aid of an integrated optical sensor module. Because all the components necessary for carrying out the method are integrated on the same substrate, the sensor becomes small, compact, stable, malfunction-free and economical. The sensor module substantially comprises a sensor field, an analyzer, and an information field. The method comprises making the variables to be measured interact in sensor fields with guided waves, analyzing the effect on the wave, determining from that the value of the measuring variables, and displaying the results in the information field.

    Abstract: In an integrated optical interference method, polarized laser light is incoupled into a planar waveguide, propagates in the waveguide as a guided wave, which consists of two mutually coherent, orthogonally polarized modes, interacts at least once with the sample, which is applied to the surface of a section of the waveguide called measuring section, and subsequently is outcoupled out of the waveguide. The time dependent phase difference .DELTA..PHI.(t) between the two orthogonal polarization components of the outcoupled light is measured with a device comprising photodetectors and polarization optical components.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for monitoring optical signals with an expanded frequency resolution. The invention permits high-resolution measurements of optical signal spectrums while retaining wide bandwidth operation through appropriate control circuitry. An interferometer having a periodic frequency response formed of equally spaced narrow-band peaks is used to sweep the entire signal spectrum. The interferometer frequency response is incrementally tuned in cycles so that each of its frequency response peaks cyclically scans a particular spectral band of the signal spectrum. During each cycle, the interferometer isolates multiple spectrally resolved portions of the optical signal spectrum where each portion originates from a different spectral band. In this way, a high-resolution measurement of the entire signal spectrum can be obtained. The invention may be network protocol independent and can be incorporated into an optical spectrum analyzer or directly into any optical terminal. The invention can be used for signal spectrum monitoring applications including link quality monitoring (LQM) in optical communications networks to monitor various transmission parameters such as such as carrier wavelengths, optical signal-to-noise ratios (SNR), amplified spontaneous emissions (ASE), noise levels, optical non-linearities or other signal baseband information such as data rates and formats.

    Abstract: An integrated optical Mach-Zehnder interferometer has two arms (11, 12) having different geometric path lengths. A first arm 11 includes arcuate segments (113, 114, 115, 116) and linear segments (111, 112) and the second arm 12 includes a mirror image arcuate segment (123, 124, 125, 126) for each arcuate segment of the first arm 11 and the total length of the straight segments (121) of the second arm 12 is less than the total length of the straight segments (111, 112) of the first arm 11. The integrated optical Mach-Zehnder interferometer is used as a demultiplexer with a 2.times.2 coupler at the output and as a multiplexer with a reversed beam path. The phase difference of both arms is directly proportional to the difference of the geometric path lengths.

    Abstract: A wavemeter fabricated using integrated optics technology. A waveguide structure is formed in a substrate, the structure including signal and reference waveguides and means for coupling an optical input signal into both waveguides. Means are provided for varying the optical path length of the signal waveguide with respect to the reference waveguide in response to a control signal. Optical signals passing through the waveguides are coupled to a detection system that produces a feedback signal having a characteristic that is a function of the optical path length difference between the waveguides, and of the wavelength of the optical input signal. A control system receives the feedback signal and produces the control signal such that the feedback signal characteristic is driven towards a predetermined value. The control signal then provides a measure of the wavelength of the optical input signal.
