ISO 11807‑2 is the second part of the multi-series International standard that defines terms used in the classification of integrated optical elements, integrated optical components, and integrated optical devices, which find applications, for example, in the fields of optical communications and sensors.
ISO 11807‑2 on integrated optics is useful for:
Integrated optics is a technology that deals with the construction of photonic integrated circuits, containing several optical components. These several optical components are combined to fulfill some or less complex functions.
These Integrated optics are classified in three major fields based on user-oriented criteria. The first criteria are to classify the devices in single mode or in multiple modes. The second criteria are helpful in classifying the complexity of elements, components and devices. The third criteria help in classifying the functions of the integrated devices or components.
ISO 11807‑2 will help you in classifying optical elements and also helps in the optical assembling of integrated optic devices. ISO 11807‑2 helps in delivering the electrical signal through an additional port in these devices. Basically, ISO 11807‑2 helps you in converting electrical signals into optical signals and vice versa.
