    摘要: A light intensity attenuator and attenuating method is provided, by which a pulse-shaped optical surge can be attenuated and an optical signal component using desired light intensity can be output by using a simpler structural arrangement, and without using many optical components and circuits. In this method, an optical signal including a pulse-shaped optical surge component is received, and the optical signal is again output after the light intensity of the surge component is attenuated by a desired amount. Typically, (i) at least one of a substrate and an optical waveguide formed on the substrate is made of a material producing a nonlinear optical effect, and the refractive index of the optical waveguide with respect to the optical signal is smaller than the refractive index of the substrate with respect to a higher harmonic of the optical signal, thereby wavelength-converting a part of the input optical signal by the nonlinear optical effect into a light portion having a wavelength shorter than that of the optical signal, and scattering this converted portion, and (ii) a part of the optical signal is scattered by using a polar-molecule liquid including polar molecules.

    摘要: The optical fuse of the present invention comprises: at least one light heatable portion for receiving an incident beam, and at least one thermally sensitive degradable portion with transparency and reflectivity, positioned in contact with the light heatable portion. The light heatable portion contains a light heatable material which generates heat depending on a specified light intensity of the incident beam. The thermally sensitive degradable portion contains a thermally sensitive degradable material which loses or reduces its transparency and reflectivity, depending on the heat generated by the light heatable portion when the light intensity of the incident beam exceeds a threshold value.

    摘要: The present invention discloses an electro-optic waveguide device such as a modulator. The device has an electro-optic substrate having optical waveguides within the substrate at or near an upper surface. A buffer layer is formed on the top surface of the electro-optic substrate. A novel block layer is formed on the buffer layer surface, which can suppress or lessen an unwanted occurrence of chemical reactions at or near the surface of the buffer layer. A charge bleed off layer is formed on the block layer, which has a certain amount of electrical conductivity to bleed off any electrical charges generated on or in the electro-optic waveguide device. Electrodes are on the charge bleed off layer, which can provide electrical signals to the optical waveguides through the buffer layer, the block layer, and the charge bleed off layer.
