ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a non-reciprocal optical element, particularly for use an an isolator or circulator, which is connected to at least two monomode optical waveguides and which has a magneto-optical waveguide structure which is subjected to a transversal magnetic field directed perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the optical wave. This arrangement is simplified by combining the functions of the coupler and the phase shifter, which is achieved by means of the following features:
