A coherent receiver comprising: a signal port receiving the signal light that has two polarization components at right angles each other; a polarization dependent beam splitter (PBS) that splits the signal light into two portions depending on the polarizations contained in the signal light; a beam splitter (BS) that splits the local light into two portions; a multi-mode interference (MMI) device that interferes between one of the two portions of the signal light and one of the two portions of the local light; optical components provided between the PBS and the MMI device; and wherein the PBS splitting a first wavelength range of the signal light and a second wavelength range outside the first wavelength range.

Assembly method for coherent receiver

An optical device includes: a stem; a mount portion connected with the stem and having an upper face, a first face and a second face opposite to the first face, the first face and the second face constituting a side face with respect to the upper face; an optical element mounted on the upper face of the mount portion; an electronic components mounted on the first face and the second face of the mount portion respectively; a first lead that penetrates the stem and is extended to a side of the first face of the mount portion; and a second lead that penetrates the stem and is extended to a side of the second face of the mount portion.
