Optical Filters play an important role in the areas of imaging, sensing, MEMS and photonics. Omnidirectional Optical Filters gives an integrated presentation of this new type of filter design that is rapidly becoming an integral part of these areas. Not only does the book give the reader a fresh look at the development of optical filter material; it is the first text dedicated to the explanation of omnidirectional optical filters. Beginning with the description of the basic optical phenomena behind these filters, the book moves on to classical filter design, and then newer designs. For the first time, omnidirectional short-pass, band pass, band-blocking and narrow band-pass filter designs are explained in detail. For graduate and undergraduate students interested in optics, photonics and MEMS, this book will give a thorough understanding of the design, fabrication and theory behind omnidirectional optical filters. Engineers in imaging, sensing and MEMS looking to learn more about these filters will also find it a valuable reference and tool.

This thesis provides an in-depth study of optical filters made using integrated Bragg gratings and Bragg resonators. Various topologies for making add/drop filters using integrated gratings are outlined. Each class of devices is studied in detail and the theoretical tools needed for designing the add/drop are developed. First-order filters using Bragg resonators do not meet WDM add/drop filter specifications. Consequently, schemes to design higher-order filters are derived. The relative advantages and disadvantages of the various possiblities are outlined. Preliminary integrated Bragg grating devices, in InP, were designed using the tools developed. The fabricated devices were measured. The measurements revealed low-loss structures with a 0.1 cm-l and high-Q Bragg resonators with Q 40, 000. Measurements on higher-order inline coupled Bragg resonator filters showed flat-top and fast roll-offs. The results of the measurements and comparison with the theory are presented for the various devices. The results reveal that Bragg grating based devices offer tremendous potential for use as add/drop filters in WDM systems.

This book presents a collection of research articles related to optical filters, commonly used on optical communication systems like the Bragg grating filter, the hybrid Solc filter, the stratified photonic crystal and the two dimensional photonic crystal fiber. These devices were designed and optimized to filter with a high accuracy one or more channels from multiplexed optical signals through the wavelength tenability, which was produced via the thermo-optic, electro-optic and strain effects.

A Unique, Cutting-Edge Approach to Optical Filter Design With more and more information being transmitted over fiber-optic lines, optical filtering has become crucial to the advanced functionality of today's communications networks. Helping researchers and engineers keep pace with this rapidly evolving technology, this book presents digital processing techniques for optical filter design. This higher-level approach focuses on filter characteristics and enables readers to quickly calculate the filter response as well as tackle larger and more complex filters. The authors incorporate numerous theoretical and experimental results from the literature and discuss applications to a variety of systems-including the new wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, which is fast becoming the preferred method for system upgrade and expansion. Special features of this book include: * The theory underlying various architectures that can approximate any filter function * Filter design techniques applicable to a broad range of materials systems-from silica to fiber to microelectromechanical (MEM) systems * Design examples relevant to filters for WDM systems and planar waveguide devices * 250 figures as well as problem sets for use in graduate-level studies
