Abstract
A rigorous numerical procedure is presented for the accurate character ization of optical filters incorporating two nonidentical coupled wave guides. Numerically simulated results are shown for InGaAsP/InP-based design indicating narrow bandwidth is achievable, by using waveguides with two-dimensional confinement. The numerical solution presented her e also suggests that by using the multiple quantum well (MQW) region f or a waveguide core the polarization dependent properties of the devic e can be compensated.
