The letter discusses the filter bandwidths achievable with directional couplers composed of two dissimilar optical fibres. One fibre always has a step-index core while the other may be either a step-index fibre or a graded-index fibre whose core has a parabolic, triangular or cusp-shaped refractive-index distribution.

Inspec keywords: optical couplers; directional couplers; optical filters; optical fibres

Other keywords: graded-index fibre; step index fibre; dissimilar optical fibres; filter bandwidths; directional coupler filter; refractive index distribution; step index core

Subjects: Fibre optics; Optical coatings and filters; Fibre optics and fibre waveguides; Spectral and other filters
