ABSTRACT:
A tonable optical arrangement is composed of two or more strip waveguides disposed on a substrate with the waveguides having different lengths and at least one having a controllable phase shifting device for controlled generation of a phase shift in that particular waveguide. This arrangement is useful for WDM transmission, for wavelength switching or for wavelength conversion.
