Abstract
A wavelength tunable filter, an optical receiver and a method using the wavelength tunable filter are disclosed. According to an aspect of the present invention, an optical receiver module having a wavelength tunable filter is provided. The transmission wavelength or reflective wavelength of the wavelength tunable filter is tunable The optical receiver module includes the wavelength tunable filter, a heat generation unit, and a separation unit. The wavelength tunable filter transmits light of a preset wavelength and tunes the preset wavelength. The heat generation unit is in contact with at least a portion of the wavelength tuning filter. The separation unit has a preset thermal conductivity. The separation unit is in contact with at least another portion of the wavelength tunable filter to support the wavelength tunable filter and separate physically or thermally the wavelength tunable filter from other components of the optical receiver module except for the heat generation unit. The preset wavelength is determined based on a temperature of the heat generation unit.
