Title: Polarization-independent WDM channel dropping filters

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10155614

We show how polarization-independent wavelength filters can be realized using asymmetric directional couplers. Simulations demonstrate that excellent polarization behavior can be achieved with practical tolerances without sacrificing filter bandwidth or insertion loss.
