As a wavelength selection filter, a filter in which dielectric
multilayered films are formed on a substrate, an optical fiber grating in
which diffraction grating is formed in an optical fiber, and so on, can
be used. As another optical demultiplexer 33, as described in Japanese
Patent No. 2599876, an arrayed optical waveguide diffraction grating
which forms plural optical waveguides having different length of optical
paths on the substrate to demultiplex the multiple wavelength light to
the respective wavelengths can be used.
