Abstract
A fiber Bragg grating bandpass filter has been investigated. The profi le of the 3.1-cm-long grating was synthesized for high reflectivity an d low dispersion by use of the iterative solution to the Gel'fand-Levi tan-Marchenko equations. A grating designed according to this synthesi s was written into a boron-codoped germanosilica fiber. The measured s pectral response was in good agreement with simulations. The achieved in-band reflection was 97%, and the passband ripple was only 0.06 dB. (C) 1998 Optical Society of America.
