Narrowband microwave-photonic notch filtering using Brillouin interactions in silicon

Gertler, Shai; Otterstrom, Nils T.; Gehl, M.; Starbuck, Andrew L.; Dallo, Christina M.; Pomerene, Andrew P.; Trotter, Douglas C.; Lentine, Anthony L.; Rakich, Peter T.

We present narrowband RF-photonic filters in an integrated silicon platform. Using Brillouin interactions, the filters yield narrowband (∼MHZ) filter bandwidths with high signal rejection, and demonstrate tunability over a wide (∼GHz) frequency range.
