Abstract

A transmitter optical subassembly is disclosed including a substrate and a direct modulated laser disposed on the substrate. A single-stage isolator, a polarization direction rotator, and an optical branching filter are disposed side by side on the substrate in a light propagation direction. The polarization direction rotator can adjust linearly polarized light to P-polarized light, the optical branching filter includes an optical splitter subassembly and a filter subassembly, and an optical splitter film in the optical splitter subassembly is an optical splitter film with P polarization. The polarization direction rotator adjusts the incident linearly polarized light to the P-polarized light, and the optical splitter film in the optical branching filter is the optical splitter film with P polarization; all P-polarized light with single polarization can pass through the optical branching filter, without causing any polarization loss or two peaks.
