Embodiment Construction

[0024] Such as figure 1 As shown, it is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an optical isolator according to the present invention. The optical isolator includes an input waveguide 111 , a waveguide grating 112 containing a magneto-optical material, and an output waveguide 113 sequentially connected in series.

[0025] Wherein, the above-mentioned waveguide grating containing magneto-optical material can be a magneto-optic waveguide grating composed of ordinary dielectric waveguide grating sputtering or bonding magneto-optic material on the waveguide surface of the part requiring magneto-optic effect. This kind of grating can be obtained through the following two methods: The first method is to use the planar optical waveguide loop (PLC) process to make ordinary dielectric waveguide gratings, and then use sputtering or bonding magneto-optical materials on the surface of the waveguide that requires magneto-optical effects to form a Magneto-optical waveguide with ...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of optical communication, in particular to an optical isolator, an optical add / drop multiplexer and an optical beam combiner. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of optical communication technology and the industrial needs of all-optical communication networks, miniaturization, functionalization, componentization and integration are the inevitable trends in the development of optical devices. Optical isolators and circulators provide various possibilities for reverse isolation, bidirectional transmission, and flexible switching of multiple channels. For example, the system capacity upgrade based on wavelength division multiplexing technology puts forward new requirements for traditional single-wavelength devices, requiring optical components Not only can the isolation function be realized, but also multiple wavelengths, especially light waves with equal frequency intervals, can be proces...
