  • Abstract
    A novel optical bandpass filter is proposed that consists of an arrayed-waveguide grating pair and an optical slit. A 200 GHz cyclic and 40 GHz passband optical filter using the proposed configuration, which is useful for WDM single sideband filtering, is successfully demonstrated.
