Abstract

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for interleaving/deinterleaving optical signals having a passive thermal compensation component (102). In accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an optical device (100) includes an interleaver/deinterleaver (101), which includes a passive thermal compensator (102), wherein an optical signal (105) which traverses the optical device (100) undergoes substantially no temperature induced frequency drift over a desired temperature range.
