ABSTRACT:
A Mach-Zehnder wavelength selective device is made using one or more composite optical fibers each incorporating a phase shift region having one effective refractive index spliced between coupling regions having a different effective refractive index. The optical path length difference or phase delay induced by each such composite fiber is a linear function of the length of the phase shift region.
