integrated optical regelelement and procedures necessary for its manufacture and integriertoptisches element and use integriertoptische schaltkreisanordnung

摘要

The integrated optical control element of this invention includes: a first waveguide (134) for allowing light incident from outside to propagate therein; a multilayer structure (109) for allowing the light which has propagated in the first waveguide (134) to be incident thereon and for transmitting the light therethrough or reflecting the light therefrom, the multilayer structure including at least one layer having a refractive index different from an equivalent refractive index of a region with which the at least one layer is in contact; and a second waveguide (136) for receiving at least part of the light transmitted through or reflected from the multilayer structure.
