Tunable Optical Filters

Wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) lightwave transmission systems and wavelength-division (WD) photonic switching systems are attractive for improvement in line capacity for lightwave telecommunication services, because they utilize a huge wavelength (frequency) domain as signal channels. Wavelength tunable optical filters are key devices for these WDM and WD systems in direct detection scheme. In particular, semiconductor wavelength tunable optical filters are suitable for monolithic integration with photonic devices such as semiconductor lasers, switches and detectors. Also, the switching speed of wavelength is faster than that of other optical filters. This paper briefly summarizes the state-of-the-art semiconductor wavelength tunable optical filters and their applications to WD photonic switching systems.
