摘要: An optical waveguide circuit is provided that can reduce or eliminate polarization dependence by reducing or eliminating birefringence. A substrate consists of a silicon substrate, and a cladding and a core are composed of silica-based glass. The core has a multilayer structure composed of a few types of layers with different refractive indices such as first core layers and second core layers stacked in the direction parallel to the substrate. As for the birefringence of the waveguide, the geometrical birefringence caused by the multilayer structure is canceled out by the other birefringence, thereby being able to reduce or eliminate the birefringence of the waveguide.

摘要: A low-cost, high-reliability polarization-independent optical waveguide interferometer is proposed which does not bring about any additional job involved in the insertion of a half-wave plate or excess loss of light. In an optical multi/demultiplexer utilizing optical interference of light waves passing through a plurality of optical waveguides with different lengths, such as an AWG and a Mach-Zehnder interferometer, longitudinal integral values of birefringence values of the individual waveguides, which values are variable or invariable along the waveguides, are made equal for all waveguides 201 and 202. Thus, simply varying the waveguide width can implement polarization-independent operation, or on the contrary implement a polarization beam splitter. For example, the polarization-independent can be implemented by making the core widths, which are averaged in a longitudinal direction of a plurality of optical waveguides with different lengths, wider in a shorter optical waveguide, and narrower in a longer optical waveguide.

摘要: An optical wavelength multiplexing/de-multiplexing circuit having a low loss and a flat transmission spectrum is provided. The optical wavelength multiplexing/de-multiplexing circuit compensates a temperature dependence of a center transmission wavelength which remains in an athermal AWG, and has an excellent accuracy of the center transmission wavelength in a whole operating temperature range or has a comparatively wide operable temperature range. The temperature dependence of the transmission wavelength in the athermal MZI is modulated and set so as to cancel the temperature dependence of the center wavelength which remains in the athermal AWG. The present invention focuses particularly on an optical coupler in the MZI and modulates the temperature dependence of the transmission wavelength in the MZI by providing the optical coupler itself with a mechanism which changes a phase difference between two outputs by temperature.

摘要: An optical wavelength multi/demultiplexing circuit is provided in which temperature dependence at a transmission center wavelength remained in an athermalized AWG is compensated. An AWG according to an embodiment of the present invention is compensated for the main temperature dependence at the transmission center wavelength. The AWG comprises an optical splitter, a first and second arm waveguides, an optical mode combining coupler and a multimode waveguide between an input/output waveguide and a slab waveguide. The optical mode combining coupler couples fundamental mode light from the first arm waveguide as fundamental mode and the fundamental mode light from the second arm waveguide as first mode. The multimode waveguide is capable of propagating the fundamental and first mode light. This AWG is configured such that the temperature dependence remained in the arrayed waveguide grating is compensated by changing the optical path length difference between the first and second arm waveguides with temperature.
