Abstract
Planar lightwave circuits (PLCs) provide various important devices for optical wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) systems, subscriber ne tworks and etc. This paper reviews the recent progress and future pros pects of PLC technologies including arrayed-waveguide grating multiple xers, optical add/drop multiplexers, programmable dispersion equalizer s and hybrid optoelectronics integration technologies.
