- 15 - AN OPTICAL FIBER FILTER Abstract A low loss, tunable optical filter (20) comprises two ferrules (24-24) which are aligned axially with each of two adjacent end faces being provided with a wafer (30). A mirror (40) is embedded between each end face and its associated wafer, the wafer being bonded to the end face of its associated wafer. Optical fiber is disposed in a passageway which extends through each ferrule and through the associated wafer. The ferrules and associated wafers are supported to cause adjacent exposed faces of the wafers to be in predetermined spatial relation to each other. Any gap therebetween may be fixed or may be adjusted by a piezoelectric transducer system (44). The disclosed filter provides rejection ratios which are sufficiently high for frequency discrimination in frequency shift keying systems and for channel selection or switching in wave division multiplexer applications.
