Abstract:
A tunable light source includes a light source; a wavelength selecting device that selects, according to a control signal, output light with a specific wavelength from light output from the light source; and a wavelength monitor including a wavelength filter including multiple output ports corresponding to filtering paths through which the output light passes, and a light-receiving device that is disposed to face one of the output ports and receives light output from the one of the output ports. The wavelength filter is configured such that a maximum quantity of the light output from the one of the output ports facing the light-receiving device becomes greater than a maximum quantity of light output from another one of the output ports.

Claim (Index 3):
The tunable light source as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein\n the output ports comprise four output ports; the wavelength filter includes\n a splitter that splits the output light into first light and second light, \n a first waveguide through which the first light passes, \n a second waveguide through which the second light passes, the first waveguide and the second waveguide having different lengths, and \n an optical divider that combines the first light and the second light input from the first waveguide and the second waveguide, splits the combined light into four light beams, and outputs the light beams to the four output ports; and \n the optical divider is configured to split the combined light such that maximum quantities of the light beams become different from each other.
