Abstract
A novel wavelength-selective photonic time-delay filter is proposed an d demonstrated. The device consists of an optical phased-array wavegui de grating in a recirculating feedback configuration. It can function as a true-time-delay generator for squint-free beam steering in optica lly controlled phased-array antennas and as an encoding-decoding filte r for wavelength code-division multiple access.
