<p>An optical attenuator having a structure in which a membrane covers a cavity formed on a substrate is disclosed. The membrane covering the cavity formed in the substrate is movable relative to the bottom surface of the cavity constituting a deformable mirror. Movement of the membrane relative to the bottom surface of the cavity attenuates optical signals impinging on the surface thereof. The movement of the membrane relative to the bottom surface of the cavity attenuates impinging optical signals by controlling the angle at which such impinging optical signals are reflected from the membrane surface. <IMAGE></p> |
