Abstract

We have proposed a new WDM-transceiver module using a wavelength-selective coupler and a 1.3 /spl mu/m InGaAs WDM p-i-n photodiode and InGaAsP MQW laser diode in order to reduce component number and module size. In this report, we confirmed the fundamental operation of this module assembled with pigtailed components. Evaluation results imply that this WDM transceiver module is promising for application to an optical WDM transceiver/receiver.
