    摘要: A method of making a planar lightwave circuit (PLC) waveguide capable of being integrated with a surface-mounted component is presented. The method entails etching a silicon substrate to form a slanted wall, forming a nonreflective waveguide portion on the silicon substrate, and depositing a reflective layer on the slanted wall. Light travels through the nonreflective waveguide portion in substantially a first direction, and the light from the nonreflective waveguide portion strikes the reflective layer to be redirected in a second direction. The second direction may be the direction toward the surface-mounted component. A PLC waveguide device made with the above method is also presented.

    摘要: The invention is a data transmission device that includes: an input Free Propagation Region (FPR) receiving a multi-wavelength signal and a single-wavelength signal, and two sets of arrayed waveguides coupled to the input FPR to carry the multi-wavelength signal and the single-wavelength signal, respectively. The arrayed waveguides demultiplex the multi-wavelength signal and create copies of the single-wavelength signal. The output plane of an output FPR receives the demultiplexed wavelengths and the copies of the single-wavelength signal such that one of the demultiplexed wavelengths and one of the copies of the single-wavelength signal focus onto the same position on the output plane. The device allows data (e.g., video stream) to be broadcast to all subscribers in a Wavelength-Division-Multiplexed Passive Optical Network (WDM-PON) architecture. A multicasting apparatus can be implemented by using a plurality of these devices and using different wavelengths for the single-wavelength signal for the different devices.
