摘要:
A channel switching function is added to a wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) system, which is an access optical network system, and the potential transmission rate is increased by combining wide wavelength tunable lasers and a time division multiplexing (TDM) data structure and properly using the necessary optical components. In addition, when the wavelength of a light source or an arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) changes, the wavelength is traced and the magnitude of a transmitted signal is maximized without an additional detour line using a loop-back network structure. Furthermore, fewer thermo-electric controllers (TECs) are required for stabilizing the temperature of an optical line terminal (OLT) using wavelength tunable lasers, each laser electrically changing its wavelength.

Provided is a monolithic integrated semiconductor broad band light source. In the monolithic integrated semiconductor broad band light source, an electro absorption modulator, a semiconductor optical amplifier, and a light emitting diode are integrated on an InP substrate. Ions are implanted among the electro absorption modulator, the semiconductor optical amplifier, and the light emitting diode to electrically insulate the electro absorption modulator, the semiconductor optical amplifier, and the light emitting diode from one another. Electrodes independently implant currents into the electro absorption modulator, the semiconductor optical amplifier, and the light emitting diode. In particular, it is important to form a current intercepting layer and electrically insulate electrodes from one another but optically connect the electrodes in terms of performance of the monolithic integrated semiconductor broad band light source. The semiconductor optical amplifier and the light emitting diode are integrated into an active layer. As a result, broad band light generated from the light emitting diode is amplified by the semiconductor optical amplifier and modulated by a modulator so as to fabricate a monolithic broad band light source.

Provided is a wavelength tunable light source including a semiconductor optical amplifier, a beam steering unit or a beam deflector, and a concave diffraction grating integrated therein. The wavelength tunable light source can be easily implemented since locations to which a beam is diffracted by the concave diffraction grating and at which portions of the beam with different wavelengths have constructive interference form a straight line, not a Rowland circle. Furthermore, wavelength tuning and optical coupling characteristics of the wavelength tunable light source are excellent. Since both single integration and hybrid integration are possible for the wavelength tunable light source, the wavelength tunable light source exhibits superior operating characteristics and high reliability.

Provided is an optical deflector for deflecting radiation beams. The optical deflector includes: a peripheral region having a first effective refractive index; and a deflection pattern region having a predetermined shape and a second effective refractive index, wherein the second effective refractive index differs from the first effective refractive index. Here, due to the deflection pattern region having the predetermined shape, the radiation beams are deflected in a direction starting from a certain point. By using the optical deflector, the locus of a light source can be designed in one of various forms, such as a straight line, a circle, an ellipse, or a parabola.
