Abstract

Optical liquids can be used to engineer the dispersion characteristics of fibers by serving as the core or cladding to attain fundamental-mode cutoff effect. The short-/long-pass fiber filters are so made and concatenated to achieve widely thermo-optic tunable Gaussian-shaped spectral filters. The proposed wideband tunable Gaussian-shaped spectral filter provides a potential technique in application to high resolution bio-imaging.
