20160007105 | OPTICAL ELEMENT AND LIGHT RECEIVING DEVICE - An optical element includes: a polarization splitter that splits light input from an input port into a first signal and a second signal according to a plane of polarization; a polarization rotator that rotates a plane of polarization of the second signal output from the polarization splitter by 90 degrees; a first optical coupler that combines the first signal output from the polarization splitter and the second signal output from the polarization rotator and splits the resultant signal into a third signal and a fourth signal with an equal amplitude; a phase controller that controls a phase of the third signal; and a second optical coupler that combines the third signal output from the phase controller and the fourth signal output from the first optical coupler and splits the resultant signal into a fifth signal and a sixth signal with an equal amplitude. | 01-07-2016 |
20160006533 | OPTICAL ELEMENT, LIGHT TRANSMITTING DEVICE, AND LIGHT RECEIVING DEVICE - An optical element includes: a first delayed interferometer; and a second delayed interferometer and a third delayed interferometer cascaded to the first delayed interferometer. The first delayed interferometer includes: a first optical coupler and a second optical coupler; a first waveguide between the first optical coupler and the second optical coupler; a second waveguide between the first optical coupler and the second optical coupler, the second waveguide being longer than the first waveguide; and a ring waveguide that is coupled to the first waveguide. A difference between a length of the first waveguide and a length of the second waveguide differs from a difference in lengths corresponding to a channel spacing by a length corresponding to a phase displacement caused by loading of the ring waveguide. | 01-07-2016 |
20150093069 | SEMICONDUCTOR LASER MODULE AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - There is provided a semiconductor laser module with a semiconductor laser chip, in which a first optical waveguide is formed, flip-chip mounted on a silicon substrate with a mesa structure in which a second optical waveguide is formed. The optical axes of the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide make a specified angle with lines perpendicular to the respective cleavage planes. Alignment marks are provided on the silicon substrate and the semiconductor laser chip at at least two positioning locations to enable mounting of the semiconductor laser chip by passive alignment. The mounting position is decided so that laser light emitted in a direction of the optical axis of the first optical waveguide and refracted at the emission surface, is refracted at the incident surface of the second optical waveguide and becomes incident in the direction of the optical axis of the second optical waveguide. | 04-02-2015 |
20150086153 | OPTICAL DEVICE HAVING A STEPWISE OR TAPERED LIGHT INPUT/OUTPUT PART AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR - In a method of manufacturing an optical device including an optical waveguide having a core, a cladding and a light input/output part through which a light beam is input or output, a substrate is prepared which is provided with a uniform thickness of single-crystalline film having its constituent atoms forming a diamond lattice structure and its surface being neither the (111) plane nor its equivalent planes. In the single-crystalline film, a precursor structure is formed which has a precursor of light input/output part. A mask is formed such as to expose the precursor with the remaining part covered. The structure is immersed into an alkaline solution for wet etching with the (111) planes used as etch-stop planes. | 03-26-2015 |
