摘要：
It is shown that nearly ideal multiplexing and demultiplexing can be realized in optical networks by using a planar arrangement of two waveguide gratings combined with a reflector (or a waveguide lens). The new arrangement, realized by using a new type of waveguide array, implies higher spectral efficiency and higher capacity for future optical networks.
