Abstract :
Light-induced self-written waveguides for optical fiber connections are an attractive prospect, as the technology for highly efficient connections. In this report we fabricated a band-pass filter in the waveguide by irradiating it with a violet laser diode through a phase mask. The extinction ratio of fabricated filter is about 30dB.
