    摘要: A multi-wavelength optical reflector comprises a diffraction grating structure (18) which comprises a plurality of repeat grating units (20) in which each grating unit (20) comprises a series of adjacent diffraction gratings (22, 24, 26) having the same pitch. The grating units (20) and adjacent gratings within a grating unit are separated by a phase change (28) of substantially pi (&pgr; radians). The lengths of the gratings (22, 24, 26), which are different for each grating within a grating unit, are selected so as to provide a predetermined comb reflection spectrum which comprises a plurality of reflection maxima of substantially equal reflectivity.

    摘要: A Bragg reflector grating comprises a plurality of chirped grating sections (65-72), in which at least a first chirped grating section and a second chirped grating section have differing ranges of grating pitches. The combined range of grating pitches provided by the first and second chirped grating sections includes at least one discontinuity, such that the first and second chirped grating sections have one or more grating pitches in common and/or there are one or more ranges of grating pitches within the combined range of grating pitches that are absent.

    摘要: A tunable laser comprises a gain section and two or more reflectors. At least one of the reflectors is a Bragg grating comprising a reduced strength section comprising a base order periodic pattern of marks and spaces from at which at least some of the marks or spaces are missing. This enables the reflective strength of the grating to be controlled relative to the other reflector. The Bragg grating may be a phase change grating with individual sections being reduced in strength by line removal.

    摘要: A Bragg grating has a local reflection strength which varies with position along the length of the grating so as to generate a non-uniform wavelength reflection spectrum, enabling compensation for a non-uniform gain profile of the gain section of a tunable laser. In another aspect, a Bragg comb grating is modulated by an envelope function which can also compensate for a non-uniform gain profile. The comb grating may be a phase change grating, with the envelope function shape being controlled by the length between phase changes and/or size of the phase changes.

    摘要: An apodised Bragg grating comprises a base grating section formed by a base order 5 periodic pattern of marks and spaces. The Bragg grating further comprises one or more apodised grating sections that are formed by a periodic pattern of marks and spaces, each defined by the base order pattern from which at least some of the marks are missing. The determination of which marks are missing may be performed by combining the base order pattern with a higher order modulation envelope function.

At least one of the reflectors is a Bragg grating comprising a reduced strength section comprising a base order periodic pattern of marks and spaces from at which at least some of the marks or spaces are missing.
