摘要： A WDM add/drop device for use in an optic communications system for adding and dropping optical wavelengths from a multiple-wavelength optical system. The device includes a set of lenses, a planar grating wavelength multiplexer and a micromirror array switchable for individual wavelengths of the multiple-wavelength signal between a transmit mode and a reflect mode. The grating angularly demultiplexes a multiple-wavelength optical signal in a first direction and the individual wavelengths are processed by the micromirror array and directed to the grating in a second direction. The micromirror array will either reflect select wavelengths to a first port or transmit select wavelengths to a second port. In a preferred embodiment, ports on a first multiport circulator input the multiple-wavelength optical signal to the WDM add/drop device and output the multiple-wavelength optical signal from the WDM add/drop device. A second multiport circulator provides to-be-added wavelengths to the WDM add/drop device and removes to-be-dropped wavelengths from the WDM add/drop device.

摘要： A bypass-exchange switch for switching the path of at least one optical signal includes a telecentric imaging device for high efficiency coupling of the optical signal into either of two outputs. The switch also includes an optical director for changing the operating mode of the switch from an exchange state to a bypass state wherein the different outputs are selected. The optical director is implemented as a variable reflectivity mirror, or a mechanically-actuated mirror. The switch may include a wavelength selective filter for permanently bypassing or exchanging preselected wavelengths of the optical signals.

摘要： Optical switches utilizing electrostatically-driven actuators formed from micro machined plates are disclosed. Under an applied voltage, a movable plate moves toward a fixed plate or a conductive region of an underlying support. The switches further include a mechanical linkage from the actuator to an optical device. The displacement of the movable plate generated at the actuator is transferred, via the mechanical linkage, to the optical device. The optical device, which is positioned in close proximity to optically-aligned spaced optical fibers, is movable into and out of an optical path defined by the optical cores of the optical fibers by the action of the actuator. An "in-plane" optical switch includes an actuator having two vertically-oriented electrodes, which generates a substantially horizontally-directed displacement of the movable plate and the linked optical device. An "out-of-plane" optical switch includes an actuator having at least one horizontally-disposed suspended above a conductive region of an underlying support. The actuator generates a substantially vertically-directed displacement of the movable plate and the linked optical device.

摘要： A hinged mask and a method for its use in manufacturing MEMS device are disclosed. According to the invention, the hinged mask and a portion of the MEMS device are formed at the same time on a support. Openings are formed in the mask, the openings defining a pattern that is transferable in the form of a patterned layer. After release of the MEMS device, the hinged mask is rotated out-of-plane about 180.degree. to lie on top of the MEMS device. The hinged mask is used as a micro-sized shadow mask to deposit a patterned film of arbitrary composition on the MEMS device. Since the hinged plate is formed by the original lithography, it is aligned to the MEMS device with a high degree of accuracy.
