Abstract
A tunable dispersion compensator includes a collimating unit that collimates an incident light to output a parallel light, a parallel shifting unit that spatially shifts the parallel light from the collimating unit within a predetermined range, and an optical-path-length providing unit that provides optical path length of light corresponding to a position at which light output from the parallel shifting unit is input.
