  • Patent number: 7167230
    Abstract: A liquid crystal variable wavelength filter unit and its driving method applicable for a Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) communication system and an optical network using an optical fiber. The liquid crystal variable wavelength filter unit (130) includes a band pass filter (111) configured of a dielectric multi-layered film inclined by a predetermined angle of ? between a first liquid crystal beam deflector (101) and a second liquid crystal beam deflector (103) and held between a first wedge prism (121) and a second wedge prism (123). The first drive device (141) is connected to the first liquid crystal beam deflector (101), and the second drive device (143) is connected to the second liquid crystal beam deflector (103). The wavelength is selected by the liquid crystal beam deflector by making the outgoing angle variable with respect to the band pass filter.
