Patent

CA 2067019

An arrangement for generating an array (one- or two-dimensional) of optical beams, or spots, is disclosed. The array is particularly useful in conjunction with an array of optically sensitive devices utilized in applications such as optical computing or photonic switching. The array generator includes an optical gain medium and a partially reflecting mirror disposed to form an externally modulated laser arrangement. A diffraction grating, such as a Dammann grating, is disposed in the signal path to form the required array of optical beams. A wavelength control element, including transparent and non-reflecting regions, may be disposed beyond the output of the diffraction grating to provide optical feedback for wavelengthstabilization of the gain medium.
