Abstract

Instead of real phase shifts, equivalent phase shifts (EPS) are adopted to construct ultra narrow phase-shifted band-pass filer in sampled Bragg gratings (SBG). Two optimized distributions of multiple equivalent phase shifts, using 2 and 5 EPSs respectively, are given in this paper to realize flat-top and ripple-free transmission characteristics simultaneously. Also two demonstrations with 5 EPSs both on hydrogen-loaded and photosensitive fibers are presented and their spectrums are examined by an optical vector analyzer (OVA). Given only ordinary phase mask and sub-micrometer precision control, ultra-narrowband flat-top filters with expected performance can be achieved flexibly and cost-effectively.
