A dielectric filter includes: a dielectric block having a pair of opposing end faces; a through-hole formed between the pair of opposing end faces of the dielectric block; an inner conductor formed on the inner surface of the through-hole, the inner conductor being open-circuited at both its ends; an outer conductor formed on the outer surface of the dielectric block; and a connection conductor by which a central part of the inner conductor between its two opposing ends is connected to the outer conductor. Although the dielectric filter is composed of the single dielectric block, it behaves as a band-elimination filter having pass-bands around the elimination-band centered at a trap frequency wherein elimination occurs at both edges of the pass-bands.
摘要:
In a dielectric block, resonator holes have steps thereby providing a portion having a larger inner diameter and a portion having a smaller inner diameter, and the smaller inner diameter portion of each resonator hole is formed on the side of a short-circuited end surface. By forming the small inner diameter portions of the resonator holes relatively close to each other, the coupling between the two resonators becomes inductive coupling. By contrast, when small inner diameter portions are formed further apart from each other, the coupling between the two resonators becomes capacitive coupling. The coupling strength can be changed by adjusting the distance between the small inner diameter portions.

A semiconductor laser includes a first conductivity type semiconductor substrate; a double-heterojunction structure including a first conductivity type cladding layer, an active layer, and a second conductivity type cladding layer successively disposed on the semiconductor substrate; two parallel stripe grooves forming the double-heterojunction structure in a mesa shape; a first conductivity type mesa embedding layer, a second conductivity type current blocking layer, and a first conductivity type current blocking layer successively disposed on the semiconductor substrate and contacting opposite sides of the mesa; and impurity doped regions formed by adding an impurity through the surface of the first conductivity type current blocking layer. The impurity doped regions electrically separate an upper part of the mesa from the second conductivity type current blocking layer at opposite sides of the mesa. Since the second conductivity type current blocking layer is not in contact with the mesa structure, no leakage current path is formed in the laser structure.

A semiconductor device has a two-dimensional slab photonic crystal structure in which a substrate supports a sheet-like slab layer including, sequentially stacked, a lower cladding layer, an active layer, and an upper cladding layer. A periodic refractive index profile structure, in surfaces of the stacked layers, introduces a linear defect region that serves as a waveguide. A p-type region and an n-type region in the slab layer define a pn junction surface at a predetermined angle with respect to the surfaces of the stacked layers in the slab layer.

An optical waveguide ridge has a side with a flat portion extending uniformly from a top of the ridge to a surface of a semiconductor substrate, the flat portion being in contact with an exposed surface of the substrate. A p-type electrode extends from the top of the optical waveguide ridge downward in contact with a dielectric film on the flat portion of the optical waveguide ridge. The p-type electrode further extends over the dielectric film onto the exposed surface of the semiconductor substrate where an end of the electrode is a bonding pad.

The invention provides a filtering device of the transmission-reception switched type which can be constructed in a form with a reduced size at a low cost without having to use circuit elements such as a capacitor, a coil, and a transmission line forming a phase shift circuit which are not essential to the filtering device. Inner conductors serving as distributed-parameter resonance lines are formed in a dielectric block. There is provided a coupling line coupled with particular inner conductors. The open-circuited ends of these particular inner conductors are connected to an outer conductor via corresponding diode switches so that transmission and reception filters are switched from each other when either diode switch is selectively turned on.
摘要:
A semiconductor optical device includes a semiconductor laser region for producing laser light and having a first optical waveguide mesa structure including a first active layer and a diffraction grating, and first current blocking layers adjacent to opposite sides; a light modulator region for modulating the laser light and having a second optical waveguide mesa structure continuous with the first optical waveguide mesa structure and including a second active layer, and second current blocking layers adjacent to opposite sides; and a window region for propagating the laser light modulated by the light modulator region and having a mesa-shaped window structure continuous with the second optical waveguide mesa structure, the mesa width of the window structure being larger than the mesa width of the second optical waveguide mesa structure. The light is prevented from leaking from the window and reaching the interface of the window structure and a burying layer adjacent to the window structure. The laser light is not reflected at the interface of the window structure and the buried layer. The shape of the beam of laser light emitted from the window structure is not distorted, resulting in a satisfactory connection to an optical system.
