Abstract
Improvements in distributed feedback optical reflection filters are described. In particular, taper shapes for the optical reflection couplers are determined by a design method based on a variational optimization theory, to provide an out-of-band sidelobe suppression ratio of greater than -30 dB, and a reduced width of the filtered bandwidth for a specified side lobe suppression level. These filter characteristics were determined by specifying the interaction strength reflection function along the length of the coupler, by the design formula
