    摘要: An add-filter device includes a plurality of ring resonators that are arranged to receive an optical signal of a specific wavelength and channel to be added onto a bus line that is arranged to receive a plurality of signals. At least one Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (MZI) structures embedded in the plurality of ring resonators. The at least one MZI structure and ring resonators provide the necessary modulation and filtering so that the optical signal can be added to the bus line without affecting the channels contained in the bus line.

    摘要: A method for writing a Bragg grating in a waveguide comprises the steps of placing the waveguide in a writing position in which the waveguide extends essentially along one axis; generating a beam of ultraviolet radiation; executing a first and a second scan with the said beam along the waveguide through a phase mask, in such a way as to generate interference fringes capable of modifying the refractive index along the said waveguide in a predetermined way; moving the phase mask, during the first or the second scan, with an oscillatory motion about one of its equilibrium positions and along a direction lying at an angle of less than 90° to the axis of the said waveguide, in such a way as to produce, in this scan, an essentially zero envelope of the refractive index; and varying the intensity of the energy of the ultraviolet radiation in a controlled way along the waveguide during the first and the second scan, for example by controlling the scanning velocity.
