An optical demultiplexer separates wavelength-multiplexed light propagating through an input fiber into waves of multiple wavelengths and distributes them to separate output fibers. Interference film type optical demultiplexers and diffraction grating type optical demultiplexers have been developed. Interference film type optical demultiplexers have the advantage that the center wavelength and bandwidth can be designed arbitrarily, but forming the interference film requires extremely advanced technology and a great deal of work, and the interference film has the same number of demultiplexers. Since it is necessary to combine the two, there is a drawback that manufacturing becomes difficult as the number of demultiplexing waves increases. On the other hand, while a diffraction grating type demultiplexer has the advantage of being able to perform multiple demultiplexing with one diffraction grating, the wavelength band with high diffraction efficiency is limited to the vicinity of the blaze wavelength, making it difficult to widen the wavelength band. It had the disadvantage of being. In order to solve this drawback, a structure in which an interference film and a diffraction grating are combined has been proposed, as shown in the example of FIG. 1st
In the figure, 1 is an input fiber, 2 is a collimating lens, 3 is an interference film filter, 4 and 5 are each a diffraction grating, and 6-a, 6-b, 6-c, and 6-d are output fibers, respectively. According to the structure shown in FIG. 1, after the wavelength bands are separated by the interference film filter 3, the diffraction grating 4, which has high diffraction efficiency in each wavelength band,
By using 5, it becomes possible to construct a broadband optical demultiplexer.

The operation of the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 will be explained using an enlarged view of the end portion of the distributed index rod lens 19 shown in FIG. Wavelength incident from input fiber 18
The 1200 nm light is diffracted by the diffraction grating 28 and focused on the right angle prism 20-a. This light is displaced perpendicularly to the main surface of the diffraction grating by a distance determined by the dimensions and imaging position of the right-angle prism 20-a, is reflected toward the diffraction grating 28, is diffracted again, and is directed to the output fiber 21.
-Focuses on a. At this time, if the center wavelength changes from 1200 nm, the focusing position of the right-angle prism 20-a moves within the main surface of the diffraction grating, but if the position is within the reflective surface of the right-angle prism 20-a, the right-angle prism 20-a moves. Since the reflected light from a goes backward at almost the same angle as the diffracted light, the re-diffracted light always maintains a constant angle regardless of the change in wavelength and is focused on the output fiber 21-a. As a result, it is possible to realize characteristics of a wide wavelength band. Similarly, incident light with wavelengths of 1300 nm, 810 nm, and 890 nm is transmitted through right angle prisms 20-b, 20-c, respectively.
Output fibers 21-b, 21 via 20-d
-c, imaged at 21-d. In this way, according to the embodiment of FIG. 3, the problems remaining in FIG. 2 can be solved and the passband width of each wavelength can be made sufficiently wide.
