An optical-source monitor images and diffracts received optical signals using an optical device that has a reflective geometry. For example, the optical device may include a diffraction grating on a curved surface, such as an echelle grating. By imaging and diffracting the optical signals, the optical device may couple to the optical signals on different diffraction orders of the optical device (which have different carrier wavelengths) from input optical waveguides to corresponding output optical waveguides. Then, output power monitors may measure the output power levels of the optical signals, and control logic may provide wavelength control signals to optical sources that provide the optical signals based on measured output power levels. |
