摘要： In accordance with the invention, a MEMs device comprises a component layer, an actuator layer and an intervening spacer. The component layer, the spacer and the actuator layer are assembled at ambient temperature and held together in lateral alignment by resilient spring members. The spacer provides the walls of a cavity between a component and an actuator to permit movement of the component. The walls are advantageously conductive and cover the bulk of the peripheral boundary of the cavity to provide electrostatic isolation and aerodynamic isolation.

摘要： A variable attenuator device is disclosed that may be magnetically and latchably controlled such that it does not require a continuous power supply to maintain a particular loss level. The variable attenuator comprises two optical components disposed in spaced apart relation to define a gap between them and a magnetic shutter positioned within the gap. The shutter is movable, due to its magnetic properties, from a first position to at least a second position, where the second position may be within, partially within, or outside of the gap. A mechanism is provided for magnetizing or actuating the shutter to cause it to move from the first position to the at least second position. When the shutter is in the first position, it causes a certain amount of attenuation in the signal being transmitted between the two optical components, and when it moves to the at least second position, a different amount of attenuation is caused, such that movement of the shutter causes a variation in the attenuation. With this attenuator, the variation in attenuation may be achieved via coupling loss while the optical components (e.g., mating fibers), are maintained in a fixed position, thereby avoiding difficulties associated with fiber movement.

摘要： A method for making a chirped grating device capable of a broad bandwith for optical communication systems is disclosed. An intrinsically-chirped optical grating is externally strained to alter the range of chirping. The external strain may be induced by a gradient-generating body bonded onto the length of the fiber grating that may be latchably strained so that the grating characteristics may be changed or tuned while avoiding use of a continuous power supply. Various optical networking applications using such dispersion compensating devices are also disclosed.

摘要： The invention provides a device with an improved tunable laser structure, the structure useful with surface emitting lasers and capable of exhibiting desirable latchability. The tunable laser of the invention contains a laser structure having a lower reflector, an active laser region, and an upper reflector. The upper reflector contains a non-moveable reflector portion located adjacent the active laser region and a moveable reflector portion located a spaced distance from the non-moveable reflector portion. A magnetic material is located either on a surface of the moveable reflector portion or on a surface in contact with the moveable reflector portion, and a programmable magnet is located near the magnetic material, the magnet capable of inducing controlled movement of the magnetic material. This movement in turn induces movement of the moveable reflector portion such that the spaced distance between the moveable reflector portion and the non-moveable reflector portion is capable of being adjusted. By adjusting this spaced distance (i.e., the air gap between the moveable and non-moveable reflector portions), the phase of reflection and thus the laser output wavelength is controlled.

摘要： In accordance with the invention, a passively temperature-compensated tunable optical grating device comprises a grating, which is fixed at both ends to a support frame, and is mechanically or magnetically flexed so that a tensile strain induced in the grating reconfigures the resonant wavelength of the grating. Preferred embodiments include at least one waveguide grating, a flexing mechanism capable of inducing a latchable change in grating periodicity and at least one negative thermal expansion component which, upon heating, reduces the strain in the grating so that the temperature-induced wavelength shift is substantially cancelled out. The device can reduce the temperature-dependent wavelength change to less than 0.5 nm/100 deg. C, and preferably less than 0.05 nm/100 deg. C. In a preferred embodiment, the packaging assembly also includes a fine-wavelength adjusting mechanism for post-assembly corrective tuning. The device is especially useful in WDM communication systems, particularly for adding or dropping channels, for dynamically gain-equalizing optical amplifiers, for tunable lasers, and for dispersion compensation.

摘要： In accordance with the invention, a tunable fiber grating comprises a fiber grating secured between a pair of magnets so that magnetic force (repulsive or attractive) applied to the magnets is transmitted to the grating. An electromagnet is disposed adjacent the magnets for applying the field to magnetize them. Control of the current applied to the electromagnet permits control of the force transmitted to the fiber grating and, thus, control of the grating strain, spacing and reflection frequency. In a preferred embodiment the electromagnet is actuated to produce magnetic pulses which control the remanent force between the two magnets, eliminating the need for continuous power. An add/drop multiplexer employing the tunable gratings is described.
