Abstract: A (de)multiplexer for use in optical communications systems for multiplexing and demultiplexing an optical signal consisting of optical channel(s) of different wavelength(s) includes a multiplex optical waveguide propagating a plurality of optical channels and a plurality of single channel optical waveguides, each propagating a single channel. Each of the waveguides has a receiving/transmitting end. A diffraction grating is optically coupled between the multiplex optical waveguide and the single channel optical waveguides for diffracting an optical signal between the receiving/transmitting end of the multiplex optical waveguide and the receiving/transmitting end of the single channel optical waveguide. The grooves of the diffraction have spacing which varies according to an algorithm such that a portion of the optical signal diffracted by each groove is offset in a direction of dispersion relative to the portions of the optical signal diffracted by the other surfaces to broaden the transmission band at the receiving/transmitting ends of the single channel and multiplex optical waveguides. A method for fabricating a grating as described above includes etching grooves having spacing which varies according to the algorithm such that a portion of the optical signal diffracted by each surface is offset in a direction of dispersion relative to portions of the optical signal diffracted by each other surface.

Abstract: A method of monitoring combustion properties in an interior of a boiler of the type having walls comprising a plurality of parallel steam tubes separated by a metal membrane. First and second penetrations are provided in the metal membrane between adjacent tubes on opposite sides of the boiler. A beam of light is projected through a pitch optic comprising a pitch collimating lens and a pitch relay lens, both residing outside the boiler interior. The pitch relay lens projects the beam through a penetration into the boiler interior. The beam of light is received with a catch optic substantially identical to the pitch optic residing outside the boiler interior. The strength of the collimated received beam of light is determined. At least one of the pitch collimating lens and the catch collimating lens may then be aligned to maximize the strength of the collimated received beam.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided employing a single set of reduced-cost optics for (de)multiplexing optical signals whereby the resultant signals have a flat-top response with increased channel spacing. One aspect of the present invention uses an optical interleaver (310) to separate channels from an input multichannel (multiplexed) optical signal (302) with a select channel spacing into, for example, two input signals consisting of alternating channels at twice the select channel spacing. The separated signals are then directed to a multiple-input, such as dual-input, (parallel)(de)multiplexer device (320) which further spacially separates the channels for coupling with single channel transmission fibers (3221-n, 3241-n). The input fibers to the (de)multiplexer are preferably offset relative to each other to accommodate channel shift resulting from the interleaver.

Abstract: A bulk optic (de)multiplexer (10) consists of a fiber pigtail array (20), a focusing optic (18) and a wavelength dispersive element or grating (16) in optical alignment along an optical axis (22). The focusing optic is rigidly affixed to the frame and the fiber pigtail array (20) and wavelength dispersive element (16) are attached by adjustable connectors (112, 56, 340) to facilitate al ignment. The frame (12) has thermally expansive elements to compensate for shifts in light beams processed by the (de)multiplexer as a function of temperature. Vibration dampers (150, 152, 154, 160, 200) isolate the frame and optical elements form vibrations applied to the (de)multiplexer.
