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 6):
The tunable light source as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein\n the input waveguides include two connected input waveguides connected to the first waveguide and the second waveguide and two non-connected input waveguides not connected to the first waveguide and the second waveguide; and areas of surfaces of the connected input waveguides contacting the optical coupler are greater than areas of surfaces of the non-connected input waveguides contacting the optical coupler.
