All-fiber zero-insertion-loss add–drop filter for wavelength-division multiplexing

Abstract

We developed and fabricated an all-fiber add–drop filter by recording a Bragg grating in the waist of an asymmetric mode converter–coupler formed by adiabatic tapering and fusing of two locally dissimilar, single-mode optical fibers. The insertion loss of the device was 0.1 dB. A narrow spectral bandwidth <1 nm and a large add–drop efficiency >90% were also demonstrated. In addition, the filter was polarization independent.
