Analysis of a λ/4-phase-shifted double phase-shift-controlled distributed feedback wavelength tunable optical filter

We have proposed a new lambda/4-phase-shifted double phase-shift-controlled distributed feedback wavelength tunable optical filter structure. Theoretical analysis based on the transfer matrix method reveals that this filter can achieved a wavelength tuning range of 28.3 and 34.3 A for the grating co...

Zusammenfassung:We have proposed a new lambda/4-phase-shifted double phase-shift-controlled distributed feedback wavelength tunable optical filter structure. Theoretical analysis based on the transfer matrix method reveals that this filter can achieved a wavelength tuning range of 28.3 and 34.3 A for the grating coupling coefficients of 6 and 10 mm, respectively. The filter has almost constant peak transmissivity (gain) of more than 30 dB within its tuning range, and its side-mode suppression ratio (SMSR) ranges from 15 to 34.7 dB
