Applications of the integrated waveguide grating router

Discretely tunable filter, receiver, and laser devices based on the integration of wavelength router/multiplexers with active elements are proposed. Each of these functions has been demonstrated experimentally in integrated form in InGaAsP, and will be published elsewhere. Such devices are key elements in WDM networks. >
