摘要
A dense wavelength division multiplexer for the separating of an optical signal into optical channels is provided. The dense wavelength division multiplexer of the present invention includes a mechanism of inputting an optical signal where the optical signal contains a plurality of optical channels; a mechanism of separating one or more of the plurality of optical channels by introducing a phase difference between at least two the channels of the optical signal; and a mechanism for outputting the separated plurality of channels along a plurality of optical paths. The mechanism of separating one or more of the plurality of optical channels includes utilizing glass blocks and a nonlinear interferometer. The present invention provides an ease in alignment and a higher tolerance to drifts due to the increase in the width of the pass bands. It may also be easily modified to perform the add/drop function as it separates channels. The materials required to manufacture and implement the dense wavelength division multiplexer in accordance with the present invention are readily available. The present invention thus does not require special or expensive materials or processes. It is thus cost effective.
