FOUR-PORT OPTICAL FILTER FABRICATED FROM TAPERED OPTICAL FIBER

A four-port optical filter is provided including two tapered optical fibers, each having a loop in the area of their tapered portions, which are located relative to one another to form a ring resonator. The optical filter has a low Q with a broadband filter response which is useful as a channel inte...

Zusammenfassung:	A four-port optical filter is provided including two tapered optical fibers, each having a loop in the area of their tapered portions, which are located relative to one another to form a ring resonator. The optical filter has a low Q with a broadband filter response which is useful as a channel interleaves or de-interleaves for dense wavelength division multiplexing and other applications.
