Abstract

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein optisches Bauelement mit einem MMi-Koppler. DOLLAR A Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein optisches Bauelement anzugeben, das trotz der Verwendung eines MMI-Kopplers eine möglichst geringe Baulänge aufweist und möglichst wenig Material benötigt. DOLLAR A Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass dem zumindest einen MMI-Koppler (2) eine Reflexionseinrichtung (5) derart zugeordnet ist, dass der MMI-Koppler (2) in einem Reflexionsmodus betrieben wird.
