29 Fiber optical attenuator US10657743 2003-09-05 US07010211B2 2006-03-07 Gil Cohen
A fiber optical attenuator utilizing the cut-off phenomenon for single mode propagation of an optical wave down a single mode fiber, comprising an element such as a pixelated liquid crystal element, capable of spatially changing the phase across the cross section of an input optical signal. Such a spatial phase change is equivalent to a change in the mode structure of the propagating wave. The signal propagating in the single mode output fiber is attenuated in accordance with the extent to which higher order modes are mixed into the low order mode originally present. When the mode is completely transformed to higher order modes, the wave is effectively completely blocked from entering the output single-mode fiber, and the attenuation is high. The level of attenuation is determined by the fraction of the wave which is converted to modes other than the lowest order mode, and is thus controllable by the voltage applied to the pixels of the liquid crystal element.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor optical waveguide element including a spot size converter.SOLUTION: A semiconductor optical waveguide element 81 includes a third semiconductor mesa 55 in which a 31-st mesa portion 55b has an end face 55d that can be optically coupled, located at an edge of a substrate 11. The end face 55d can be optically coupled to an external optical waveguide. As the width of the 31-st mesa portion 55b and the width of a 32-nd mesa portion 55c of the third semiconductor mesa 55 are larger than the width of a second semiconductor mesa 49 in the semiconductor optical waveguide element 81, a mode field diameter equal to or close to a mode field diameter of the external optical waveguide can be imparted to an optical waveguide relating to the third semiconductor mesa 55. The width of the second semiconductor mesa 49 is smaller than the width of the 31-st mesa portion 55b and the width of the 32-nd mesa portion 55c of the third semiconductor mesa 55; and a first core layer 41 and a second core layer 53 are optically coupled to each other. Thereby, propagation of light proceeds from the first core layer 41 to the second core layer 53 or from the second core layer 53 to the first core layer 41.
