ABSTRACT:
A variable-waveguide optical branching filter is disclosed, in which a diffraction grating is formed in the cross region of two crossing waveguides, only light of a particular wavelength which is determined by the period of the diffraction grating is branched to a desired one of the waveguides, and the refractive index of the cross region is changed by control of a voltage or a current, or by way of irradiation with light, thereby changing the wavelength of light to be branched.
