Abstract
A four-port bandpass filter is demonstrated with good performance by u se of UV-induced Bragg gratings in P-doped channel waveguides without UV trimming. The simple, single-step fabrication procedure is experime ntally and theoretically analyzed, and tolerances are calculated for a chieving practical wavelength-division-multiplexed communication syste m performance.
