Abstract

An integrated optical device is presented. The device comprises at least one structure formed by three linear waveguides arranged in a spaced-apart parallel relationship, and two ring-like waveguides. One ring-like waveguide is located between the first and second linear waveguides being optically coupled to said first and second linear waveguides, and the other ring-like waveguide is located between the second and third linear waveguides being optically coupled to said second and first linear waveguides. This structure being is thereby operable as a single separation filter, when the first linear waveguide is connected to an input channel, and the third linear waveguide is connected to an output channel. By combining similar structures of the same configuration, a multiple-channel interleave filter can be obtained.
