A new all-fiber bandpass filter utilizes multimode interference reimaging for telecommunications. This novel design offers low loss and tunable wavelengths, suitable for coarse wavelength-division multiplexing applications.

Area of Science:

  • Optics and Photonics
  • Fiber Optics Technology

Background:

  • Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) systems require efficient bandpass filters.
  • Existing filters may have limitations in insertion loss, bandwidth, or tunability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel all-fiber bandpass filter design.
  • To demonstrate its performance for coarse wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM).

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a multimode interference (MMI) reimaging phenomenon for filter construction.
  • Fabricated the filter using standard single-mode fiber compatible materials.

Main Results:

  • Achieved low insertion loss.
  • Demonstrated adequate bandwidth and isolation for CWDM.
