Abstract
PURPOSE:To enable connection while controlling the spreading of light in the horizontal direction by employing a square distribution of refractive index in the width direction and using optical systems of continued film thicknesses in the thickness direction. CONSTITUTION:A thin film optical transmission line 2 formed with a grating 1 on the surface is placed on a substrate 3, and this and optical fibers 4, 5, 6, are connected respectively by film thickness converters 7, 8, 9. The film thickness converters 7, 8, 9 are capable of converting spot light sources to parallel rays. Light 10 propagating in the optical fiber 4 is reduced down to several mum in the thickness direction by the film thickness converter 7 and in the horizontal direction it is converted to parallel rays of a width several mm.. These are then branched to two by the grating 1. The one ray 11 is coupled to the optical fiber 5 by the film thickness converter 8 and the other ray 12 advances rectilinear and is coupled to the optical fiber 6 by the film converter 9. Dependig upon the period and thickness of this grating 1, branch ratio and wavelength characteristics may be changed as desired. Hence, the spreading in the horizontal direction of the light coupling to the thin film optical transmission line may be changed freely.
