Abstract
There are multiple passbands in a chirped Bragg grating based on acousto-optic superlattice. The structure can be regarded as an acousto-induced super Moiré grating (AI-SMG). The analysis shows that the passbands of the AI-SMG are produced by several pairs of neighboring chirped gratings. With suitable structure parameters selected, the passbands can be non-larenzian-shape, narrow flat-top, with ripple less than 0.5dB and steep slope. The devices can be used as tunable narrow-band multichannel transmission filters. This analysis is useful for the designs and applications of the devices.
