ABSTRACT:
An optical network unit designed to be connected to incoming and outgoing fibers at a customer location is made in integrated-circuit form. One portion of the integrated circuit includes a thin-film waveguiding layer and functions as an optical splitter, a photodetector and a modulator. Another portion of the circuit serves as an amplifier..
