一 前言: 《集成光学》是研究《集成光路》的各种器件,并把它们联接起来,构成微型化的集合体以及研究他们的应用。就好比大家所熟知的《集成电路一样》,不过它更复杂,加工更精致罢了。集成光路包括那些元件?主要有两大类元件: 第一类为无源器件——不改变激光束的器件;光波导、薄膜透镜、棱镜耦合器、反射器、滤波器等。 A preface: “Integrated optics” is the study of “integrated light path” of the various devices and connect them together to form a miniaturized assembly and study their applications. It’s like the well-known “integrated circuit”, but it’s more complex and more elaborate. The integrated optical path includes those components. There are two main types of components: the first is a passive component - a device that does not change the laser beam; an optical waveguide, a thin film lens, a prism coupler, a reflector, a filter, and the like.
