Design and Installation for Integrated Optical System, Optical Method and Optical Design and installation for integrated optical system, optical method and optical. Included is a first branch capable of allowing light to pass therethrough in a forward direction and a reverse direction. The first branch includes a first medium with a first refractive index (n1), and a first end and a second end. Also included is a second branch capable of allowing light to pass therethrough in the forward direction. The second branch includes a second medium with a second refractive index (n2,withn2 < n2), and a second end. The second end of the second branch is further coupled to the first branch to from an angle ( 2). In use, 1≥ sin-1 (n2/n1) in order to prevent the light passing through the first branch in the reverse direction from passing into the second branch, where 1 is the incident angle of the light passing in the reverse direction from the first branch to the second branch.
