Abstract: A hybrid integrated structure of an optical active device and a Planar Lightwave Circuit (PLC) device using an optical fiber array is provided, in which one or more photodiodes are integrated on an upper cladding layer above one or more planar optical waveguides. A section located on a boundary surface between output optical waveguides, that is, an end of the PLC device in the direction of propagation of light, and the input end of an output optical fiber array is ground to be inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to an optical axis. Further, one or more optical fibers and one or more reflection mirrors are alternately arranged, inserted, and disposed in a plurality of V-shaped trenches formed in the output optical fiber array.

Abstract: An optical signal detector is provided that detects an optical signal from an optical source using a plurality of optical sensors having different wavelength selectivities, thereby determining the peak wavelength of the optical signal and measuring the power of an optical signal corresponding to the peak wavelength. According to the optical signal detector, separate optical filters are not required and space and costs attributable to the installation of the optical filters can be saved, and thus there are effects in that the overall size and manufacturing costs of the device can be reduced.
