Abstract

We demonstrate an integrated acousto-optic tunable filter (1.0 nm FWHM) in a multiwavelength crosstalk measurement experiment. With 16 channels present, individual channel crosstalk was lower than −15dB for both singlewavelength and dual-wavelength filtering. The RF drive power for 70% efficiency was 180mW/wavelength.
