  • Patent number: 10418386
    Abstract: An optical receiver that can tune a selected wavelength using a wavelength tunable filter transmitting a plurality of wavelengths. The optical receiver is a wavelength tunable optical receiver that includes: a wavelength tunable filter (100) transmitting laser light from an optical fiber; and a photodiode (300) receiving laser light passing through the wavelength tunable filter (100), in which the wavelength tunable filter 100 is a Fabry-Perot type etalon filter transmitting a plurality of wavelengths. When a channel with a specific wavelength is moved to a channel with another wavelength, an optical channel is selected based on a peak different from a transmissive peak of an FP etalon filter selecting the previous channel so that temperature of the wavelength tunable filter can be changed. A light-receiving photodiode chip is disposed on a thermoelectric element and a wavelength tunable filter transmits different wavelengths in accordance with temperature of the thermoelectric element.

  • Patent number: 9912117
    Abstract: A semiconductor laser device which comprises a laser diode chip (100) that emits laser light; a 45° reflective mirror (400) that changes laser light traveling horizontally to a package bottom into laser light traveling perpendicular to the package bottom. The 45° reflective mirror (400) is a partial reflective mirror which has a partial reflection/partial transmission characteristic. An optical feedback-partial reflective mirror (500) is disposed along a path of light passing vertically through the 45° reflective mirror (400). The optical feedback-partial reflective mirror (500) supplies some of the laser light traveling through the 45° reflective mirror (400) back to the 45° reflective mirror 400 by reflecting a first portion of the laser light while transmitting a remaining portion of the laser light.

  • Patent number: 9865991
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a technology of effectively interrupting light reflected from a wavelength selective filter so as not to be fed back to a laser diode chip in a semiconductor laser package having a function of adjusting a relative intensity ratio of a signal of “1” and a signal of “0” using an optical filter. Since an optical interruption device according to the present invention may effectively interrupt a light feedback to the laser diode chip by adjusting characteristics of a 45 degree partial reflection mirror in an existing TO-can type laser device having the 45 degree partial reflection mirror and additionally disposing one ?/4 waveplate, unlike an optical isolator according to the related art using an existing Faraday rotator, the signals of “1” and “0” may be effectively adjusted in a TO-can type laser device having a small volume, thereby improving a function of communication.
