Abstract: In accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an optical apparatus includes a glass monolithic structure including a plurality of optical filter elements, and the glass monolithic structure is not an opticalfiber. In accordance with another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an optical apparatus includes a glass monolithic structure which includes a plurality of optical filter elements. The optical apparatus further includes a device which selectively aligns an optical input and an optical output to one of said plurality of optical filter elements. In accordance with another exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a method of adding/dropping a particular frequency from an optical signal includes providing a glass monolithic structure which further includes a plurality of optical filter elements. The method further includes providing a device which selectively aligns an optical input and an optical output to one of the plurality of optical filters.

Abstract: An optical link comprises a first optical amplifier (101) having a first gain spectrum with a first gain ripple and a second optical amplifier (102) having a second gain spectrum with a second gain ripple. A combined gain spectrum of the first and second gain spectra is substantially flat and has a gain ripple that is substantially less than either the first gain ripple or the second gain ripple over a particular wavelength range.
