Abstract

We present simple and accurate relations for the study of parallel and curved tunable single-mode fiber directional couplers employing step-index or graded-index fibers. Analytical results for the various coupler parameters such as coupling coefficient, effective interaction length, tunability, and channel wavelength separation in directional coupler wavelength filters are presented. These results must prove very useful for an easy, quick, and accurate prediction or design of tunable single-mode fiber directional couplers.
