ABSTRACT:
An optical filter comprises a first mode converter converting an incident light signal propagating in an incident mode into a signal propagating in a propagation mode LPnm of order higher than that of said incident mode; a second mode converter converting the light signal of higher propagation order LPnm into a signal propagating in the incident propagation mode; and a slanted Bragg grating disposed between said first and second mode converters and adapted to couple the higher propagation order light signal LPnm in back-propagation into said incident mode. The filter is applicable to flattening gain and to multiplexing DWDM signals.
