Abstract

A compound optical filter consisting of an integrated acoustooptic filter in series with a fiber Fabry-Perot filter possesses a very high effective finesse of over 2000 as well as the unique multichannel passband capability of the acoustooptic filter. The fine-grain element in this pair is a narrow (0.5-AA) passband Fabry-Perot filter, and the coarse-grain element is a wide tuning range (130-nm) polarization-independent integrated acoustooptic filter. The composite device has the narrow passband of the Fabry-Perot, the wide tuning range of the acoustooptic filter and the tuning speed of the faster acoustooptic filter (5 mu s).< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
