ABSTRACT:
The present applicant has discovered that an optical filter can be made by etching away part of the cladding of a depressed-cladding fiber. The etching produces a section of fiber having a double peak in the index profile. In a low index medium such as air, the remaining cladding portion guides radiation at certain wavelengths. This radiation is extracted from the radiation in the fiber core.
