Abstract
An optical bandpass filter includes an optical splitter having at least four ports, one of the ports being designated as an input port and one of the ports being designated as an output port. First and second reflectors couple with respective third and fourth ones of the ports. The splitter directs portions of the input light from the input port, into the third and fourth ports, such that the portions of the input light propagate toward the respective first and second reflectors. The first and second reflectors reflect light having wavelengths within a predetermined wavelength range, back toward the splitter, as wavelength-selected light, and transmit light having wavelengths that are outside of the predetermined wavelength range, away from the splitter. The splitter directs at least a portion of the wavelength-selected light that propagates back toward the splitter, into the output port, as output light.
