Abstract

AbstractA novel tunable coherence‐free microwave photonic filter configuration is presented. This all‐optical structure realizes negative taps and works as a bandpass notch filter. The configuration is based on a Sagnac loop interferometer containing a single‐drive intensity modulator and a polarization‐maintaining semiconductor optical amplifier that generates phase difference between the clockwise and counterclockwise propagating waves inside the Sagnac loop. Measured results demonstrate a robust tunable bandpass notch response. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
