Abstract
First-order Bragg grating filters have been realised in GaAs/GaAlAs rib waveguides for operation at λ ˜ 1.5μm. Singlemode devices with rib widths of 2 to 5 μm and incorporating a 2.5 mm length of 225 nm period grating have been evaluated using a tunable T1:KCl colour-centre laser. Rejection ratios of 95% to 39% and 3dB bandwidths of 3.5 Ã… to 7.9 Ã… have been measured.
