ABSTRACT:
An optical modulator comprises at least two optically coupled MARS modulators, at least one having positive spectral tilt and at least one having negative spectral tilt. Both tilt and attenuation can be independently controlled by adjusting the air gaps of the constituent modulators. Preferred designs present linear spectral tilt.
