    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a digital attenuator, which can improve the variation in the pass phase of the digital attenuator because the difference between parasitic components caused by the turn-on and turn-off operations of the switching transistors of the digital attenuator causes the difference between the pass phases. The digital attenuator of the present invention includes an attenuation circuit unit configured to cause a variation in a pass phase due to a difference between parasitic components caused by turn-on and turn-off operations of switching transistors, and a phase correction unit connected in parallel with the attenuation circuit unit and provided with a series resistor and a low pass filter. Accordingly, variations in pass phase can be eliminated by connecting a low pass filter, connected to series resistors, in parallel with the series switch of an attenuation circuit unit, thus eliminating the influence of the parasitic components.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical coupler 2.times.2 optical switch which can efficiently shorten the length of device by employing a cantilever and a movable optical waveguide and a method for optical switching with the optical coupler 2.times.2 optical switch. An optical coupler 2.times.2 optical switch of the present invention comprises: an optical coupler in which two fixed optical waveguides are provided on a substrate; an optical waveguide positioned between the fixed optical waveguides, which is moved up and down; and, a cantilever which is linked to the optical waveguide to move the optical waveguide up and down by the voltage applied to electrodes. Since the coupling length of the optical coupler(22) is changed depending on the distance between the fixed optical waveguides(21, 21') and the optical waveguide(23), length(D) of the optical, coupler(22) can be shortened to a great extent compared to the prior art optical coupler 2.times.2 optical switch, and the insertion loss of the device in the construction of optical communication system can be lowered significantly and optical switching can be carried out with a good performance.

    Abstract: An area-variable varactor diode is disclosed, in which the capacitance can be arbitrarily varied under an applied bias voltage. The area-variable varactor diode is characterized in that, in order to ensure freedom to designing the epi-layer, to obtain the desired capacitance characteristics, and to facilitate the integration with other elements, a steeply varied depletion layer area is provided through a variation of the surface layout area, and thus, varied capacitance characteristics are obtained. In steeply varying the area of the depletion layer, an etching of the active layer, a selective epi-layer growth, and an ion implantation are carried out or a combination of them is carried out. The capacitance characteristics are varied in accordance with the pattern of the mask, and therefore, a restriction is not imposed on the epi-layer, with the result that an integration with other elements becomes easy. Further, because the mask pattern is resorted to, it becomes possible to manufacture a varactor diode which shows a capacitance variation of a strong non-linearity and a large capacitance variation rate.
