Title:Novel wideband optical filters for wideband optical systems
Overview:
The PhD will investigate, design, and assess novel modular wideband WSS able to operate from the O- to the L-band. To this aim, a number of novel architectures will be investigated including a wideband photonic mux/de-mux filter and WSS modules capable to separate the different bands with target specifications such as wavelength band separation (1260-1625 nm), low insertion loss (<1 dB), low cross-talk (< -35 dB), flat-top profile with low ripple, number of switching ports (up to 9 per WSS module), and 12.5 GHz channel granularity.
