Transmission bandpass guided-mode resonance filters
Abstract:
It is shown that the guided-mode resonance effects associated with waveguide gratings can be used to realize transmission bandpass filters. The key idea is the integration of the resonant waveguide gratings into a dielectric multilayer structure that efficiently reflects the off-resonance spectral components while passing the resonant part. This concept is applied to design multilayer transmission bandpass filters with high efficiency, narrow linewidth, symmetrical response, and low sidebands.
