摘要： Disclosed are planar waveguides comprising substantially polarization-independent Bragg gratings. A preferred embodiment of the invention comprises a Si body with a silica lower cladding layer thereon, and a phosphorus P-doped silica core on the lower cladding. Appropriate periodic recessed features are etched into the core, and phophorus P- and B-doped silica upper cladding is deposited over the core. The dopant concentrations are adjusted such that the refractive index difference between core and upper cladding is small (0.35-1.45.times.10.sup.-2), and such that the flow temperature of the upper cladding material is lower than that of the core material. In another preferred embodiment a thin layer of Si.sub.3 N.sub.x (x.about.4) is conformally deposited over the core after the grating etch, and the upper cladding material is deposited onto the Si.sub.3 N.sub.x layer. Bragg devices according to the invention are advantageously used in Integrated Optical Circuits (IOCs), e.g. in IOCs used in WDM optical communication systems.

摘要： An optical device is disclosed which provides wavelength multiplexing/demultiplexing utilizing a plurality of focusing Bragg reflectors. Each Bragg reflector includes a plurality of confocal (i.e., common foci) elliptical grating lines, with the exit/entrance ports of the input/output waveguides located at the foci of the ellipse. By virtue of the elliptical design, the signal propagating outward from the exit port of the input waveguide will be reflected by the appropriate Bragg reflector and focused into the entrance port of the appropriate output waveguide. When each Bragg reflector exhibits a different ellipticity, but shares one common focal point, optical multiplexing/demultiplexing may be achieved. Optical filtering may be achieved when all Bragg reflectors are designed to have common foci.

摘要： An integrated optic device useful as a planar lens or a low order array multiplexer comprises a pair of optical couplers and an array of plural waveguides extending between the couplers in an "S" configuration to provide closely spaced optical path lengths. An "S" configuration provides equal path lengths for an optical lens. Incremental lengths added to the "S" in the region between curve reversal can provide small path length increments for a low order array multiplexer or demultiplexer.

摘要： A TE-TM polarization manipulating (i.e., splitting, combining or filtering) device is constructed from substrate-supported dielectric thin film waveguides. In a 3-port device, two waveguides have cores of different materials and different effective refractive indices. The waveguide cores overlap in a first transition section and one waveguide core has an adiabatic taper; in this section they also separate adiabatically in and are coupled to a second (e.g., output) section where the waveguides are physically separate and optically decoupled. In a 4-port device, two additional waveguides are coupled in a second adiabatic transition section to the first transition section to enable TE or TM modes to be coupled straight through the device from one input port to a directly opposite output port or to be crossed-over from one input port to a diagonally opposite output port.

摘要： A wavelength selective structure is coupled to an adiabatic Y-coupler via a multimode section which supports both symmetric and antisymmetric modes. One single mode branch of the coupler converts guided light to a symmetric mode, whereas the other single mode branch converts guided light to an anti-symmetric mode. The structure, which includes a pair of single mode waveguide arms coupled to the common section and a reflection device (such as a grating or ROR) located in each arm, converts reflected light from a symmetric mode to an anti-symmetric mode and conversely. Applications described include a channel dropping fiber and channel balancing apparatus for WDM systems, and a dispersion compensator for fiber optic systems.

摘要： An optical circulator/isolator is implemented in a semiconductor package formed by a semiconductor substrate, which supports integral thin film waveguide polarization splitters and combiners, and a semiconductor lid, which supports four spherical lenses and a polarization rotator. The latter is a composite of at least two adjacent slabs of optically active material, one slab serving as a nonreciprocal 45.degree. rotator (e.g., a Faraday rotator) and the other as a reciprocal 45.degree. rotator (e.g., half-wave device). The lenses, serving both as beam expanders/condensers and as collimators, are positioned between the waveguide ends and major surfaces of the composite slab. When used with means for reversing the direction of the magnetic field in the nonreciprocal rotator, the device functions also as a switch. Also described are system architectures made possible by these devices; e.g., a single-fiber LAN having a ring architecture for non-interfering counter flow of information and a single fiber, bidirectional FTTH system for handling CATV and POTS.
