An integrated wavelength division multiplexer is described. The integrated wavelength division multiplexer may include a first waveguide core defining a first propagation axis and configured to guide light of a first wavelength and light of a second wavelength, and a second waveguide core defining a second propagation axis and configured to guide the light of the second wavelength. A first portion of the second propagation axis for which the first waveguide core and second waveguide core may be overlapping is oriented at a non-zero angle relative to the first propagation axis. The first waveguide core and second waveguide core may be configured relative to each other to adiabatically couple the light of the second wavelength between the first and second waveguide cores.

Wavelength division multiplexer

A system including an optical transceiver, including a first portion of a laser cavity operable to output optical energy; and an optical modulator operable to modulate the optical energy output by the laser; and a temperature-controlled optical gain subassembly optically coupled to the optical transceiver, the optical gain subassembly including a plurality of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs), wherein one SOA of the plurality of SOAs is operable to amplify the optical energy inside a laser cavity.

Integration of optical gain subassembly with silicon photonics

An apparatus and method for calculating the frequency of the light.

Wavelength locker

A method for scanning a scene is disclosed. According to the method, light is transmitted by a transmitter through a transmitter surface grating array, as a first elliptical pattern in a first lateral direction. Light is received by a receiver through a receiver surface grating array, from an area of a second elliptical pattern. The received light is reflected from the first elliptical pattern. The first elliptical pattern is orthogonal to the second elliptical pattern. The first elliptical pattern overlaps with the second elliptical pattern.

Tunable laser

A method for steering a beam is disclosed. According to the method, a scene is scanned with a surface emitting grating optically coupled to a free propagation region. The free propagation region is optically coupled to waveguides. The waveguides are disposed at different angles to the surface emitting grating. The scanning includes scanning in a first dimension by cycling through a cross connect to illuminate each waveguide of the waveguides. Scanning in a second dimension is performed by tuning a wavelength of light used to illuminate the waveguides.
