A light mark, a method and a device for light mark modulation and demodulation are disclosed. The modulation method includes: generating a mark with periodically alternating frequency and interval; and modulating the mark signal onto an optical signal. In the present disclosure, the mark with periodically alternating frequency and interval is adapted to distinguish different wavelengths by using different frequencies, and distinguish the same wavelength from different nodes by using the same frequency but different intervals. Therefore, numerous available marks are obtained with a small number of frequencies, and unique marks for all wavelengths in a network only require a number of frequencies equal to the number of the wavelengths in the network. Moreover, even if a wavelength conflict occurs, the wavelength conflict can be determined according to detected marks.
