Rapidly tunable polarisation independent optical add drop multiplexer in Ti:LiNbO^sub 3

Rapidly tunable polarisation independent optical add drop multiplexer in Ti:LiNbO^sub 3

In this paper, a polarisation-independent four-port electro-optic tunable filter in the 1,550 nm wavelength regime utilising strain-induced polarisation conversion with 20 nm tuning range, 5.4 dB fibre-to-fibre insertion loss, and 44 ns tuning speed has been demonstrated.
