Abstract
Thermo-optic tunable short-wavelength-pass tapered-fiber filters based on fundamental-mode cutoff mechanism are realized experimentally and analyzed theoretically. The effects of material and waveguide dispersion are investigated and the optimal tapered fiber structures for attaining high-spectral cutoff slope and high-rejection efficiency are determined.
