    • One aspect is a method for controllably attenuating the beam of light (108) coupled between incoming and outgoing optical fibers (106) by misaligning minor surfaces (116a, 116b) included of an optical switching module (100). Misalignment of the mirror surfaces (116a and 116b) causes only a portion of the beam of light (108) propagating along the incoming optical fiber (106), which is less than when the light beam deflectors' mirror surfaces (116) are precisely aligned, to propagate along the outgoing optical fiber (108). Thus, the optical switching module (100) controllably attenuates the beam of light (108) coupled between the incoming and the outgoing optical fibers (106). Another aspect is a variable-optical-attenuator (“VOA”) (212) that includes an optically reflective membrane (222) upon which the beam of light (108) impinges. Application of an electrostatic field between an adjacent electrode (228) and the membrane (222) deforms the membrane (222) thereby attenuating an impinging beam of light (108).
    • 一个方面是通过使包括光开关模块(100)的小面(116a,116b)不对准来可控地衰减耦合在进入和输出光纤(106)之间的光束(108)的方法。 镜面(116a和116b)的不对准仅使得沿着入射光纤(106)传播的光束(108)的一部分小于当光束偏转器的镜面(116)为 精确对准,以沿着输出光纤(108)传播。 因此,光学开关模块(100)可控制地衰减耦合在输入和输出光纤(106)之间的光束(108)。 另一方面是可变光衰减器(“VOA”)(212),其包括光束(108)撞击在其上的光学反射膜。 相邻电极(228)和膜(222)之间的静电场的施加使膜(222)变形,从而衰减入射光束(108)。
