    摘要: An optical variable attenuator has a planar waveguide, which is provided with optical waveguides forming an input optical line A and an output optical line B. A cantilever is disposed at the upper face of the planar waveguide, whereas a movable mirror for reflecting light passing through the input optical line A toward the output optical line B is secured to the leading end part of the cantilever. An electrode is disposed at the upper face of the planar waveguide. The cantilever and the electrode are connected to each other by way of a voltage source. The voltage source applies a voltage between the cantilever and the electrode, so as to generate an electrostatic force therebetween, which flexes the leading end side of the cantilever toward the electrode. As a consequence, the movable mirror moves toward the electrode.

    摘要: An optical signal, which is to become the subject of dispersion compensation, is split by optical combining/splitting unit 2, and each frequency component of the optical signal that is split is reflected by each reflective surface of reflective mirror 40 of reflective means 4 to apply a predetermined phase shift to the respective frequency components. Each reflected frequency component is then combined using optical combining/splitting unit 2, to give dispersion compensated optical signal. Furthermore, in regards to reflective means 4, which is used to apply phase shift to each frequency component of an optical signal, reflective mirror 40 is made a variable movable mirror by reflection position at each reflective surface, which reflects the frequency components, deforming the entire reflective surface. This allows dispersion that is created in an optical signal to be compensated with favorable controllability and high accuracy. As a result, it becomes possible to provide a variable dispersion compensator that presents high precision and controllability of dispersion compensation, and has a miniaturized optical circuit, and an optical transmission system comprising such variable dispersion compensator.

A first waveguide path 11 and a second waveguide path 12 are provided on a waveguide substrate PCL so as to intersect each other at a given angle. A trench T is formed in a straight line in the surface of the waveguide substrate PCL so as to cross the central axes of the first waveguide path and the second waveguide path. The trench T is as deep as to expose the whole end face of the first waveguide path and the second waveguide path. The first waveguide path 11 and the second waveguide path 12 are arranged such that their central axes are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the straight line.

    摘要: An optical switch according to this invention has a planar waveguide in which an optical path is formed. A trench is formed in the upper surface of this planar waveguide. A cantilevered movable member is mounted on the planar waveguide. A comb is formed in the end portion of this movable member. A mirror which intercepts light propagating on the optical path is fixed to the end of the movable member. An electrode opposing the movable member is formed on the planar waveguide. A comb is formed in that portion of this electrode, which opposes the comb of the movable member. The movable member and electrode are connected via a voltage source. When this voltage source generates electrostatic force between the movable member and electrode, the movable member bends, and the mirror moves along the bottom surface of the trench accordingly.
