Abstract:
A wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) reconfigurable optical switch, the switch has at least one optical input port to receive a WDM input optical signal comprising a plurality of wavelength channels; a plurality of optical output ports; a reconfigurable holographic array on an optical path between the at least one optical input port and the plurality of optical output ports; and at least one diffractive element on an optical path between at least one optical input port and the reconfigurable holographic array, to demultiplex the WDM input optical signal into a plurality of demultiplexed optical input beam channels, and to disperse the demultiplexed optical input beam channels spatially along a first axis on said the reconfigurable holographic array; and the switch further comprises one or more beam profiling optical elements to modify transverse beam profiles of the demultiplexed optical input beam channels.

Claim (Index 5):
A WDM reconfigurable optical switch as claimed in  claim 1  wherein said at least one diffractive element has a transverse phase profile configured to provide said beam shaping optical element such that said transverse phase profile of said at least one diffractive element modifies transverse beam profiles of said demultiplexed optical input beam channels to flatten a said beam profile.
