| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to an optical device including a branching unit for making branches of incident light in a first branch ratio, a phase adjusting unit for adjusting the relationship in phase among branched lights obtained by the branching unit and a combining/branching unit for combining the lights after the phase adjustment by the phase adjusting unit and for then making branches of the combined light in a second branch ratio, at least one of the first branch ratio and the second branch ratio being previously set at a branch ratio other than 1:1. This can realize an optical device capable of properly selecting output light with a different wavelength chirp quantity.
