Santec, a leading design and manufacturer of fiber-optic components, sub-systems and optical instruments, developed world's first optical tunable filter technology that enables to create an arbitrary optical spectrum.
The technology allows to design any complex optical filters for next generation optical communication networks, which were difficult to realize at conventional filter technologies.
- Features
- Sharp filter edge (High figure of merit)
- Arbitrary optical filter designs available
- Tuning functions available
- Wavelength range: 40 nm (C-band or L-band)
- Applications
- Bandwidth on demand, flexible network
- Next generation bundle wavelength OXC
- Adjustable and adaptive DWDM channel filtering
- Optical equalizer for high-speed optical signals
- Flexible test and measurement
A demonstration equipment utilizing this technology was shown in OFC/NFOEC 2008.
