Lightw. Technol. VL - 19 IS - 12 SP - 1938 EP - 1942 PY - 2001 DO - 10.1109/50.971688 AB - We describe the design, fabrication and measurement of an integrated-optical Bragg grating filter, operating at a freespace wavelength of 1543 nm, based upon a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) ridge waveguide. The measured spectral response for a 4-mm long grating has a bandwidth of 15 GHz (0.12 nm), and shows good agreement with theoretical predictions. ER -
