A simple, low-cost demonstration of wavelength division multiplexing

Optics and photonics can be used to motivate students in physics courses at the high school, college, or university level. Many fundamental ideas and concepts can be taught by exploring wavelength division multiplexing as used in optical fiber communication systems. We describe a safe, simple, low-cost experimental apparatus that can be used to demonstrate the key concepts of wavelength division multiplexing. The apparatus can form the basis of several hands-on, active-learning activities.
