摘要:Improved methods and systems for routing and aligning beams and optical
elements in an optical device include a multiplexing device and/or a demultiplexingdevice, which includes an optical alignment element (OAE). The OAE can be configured tosubstantially compensate for the cumulative alignment errors in the beam path. The OAEallows the optical elements in a device, other than the OAE, to be placed and fixed inplace without substantially compensating for optical alignment errors. The OAE isinserted into the beam path and adjusted. This greatly increases the ease in the
manufacturing of optical devices, especially for devices with numerous optical elements,and lowers the cost of manufacturing. The multiplexing and/or demultiplexing device canreside within a standard small form factor, such as a GBIC. The devices fold the paths ofthe traversing beams with a geometry which allows a small package.
