Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new architecture for tunable Fabry-Perot (FP) interferometer using fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs). The main feature of the architecture is its ability to increase the finesse using a potentially low cost technique. Furthermore, it decreases the power loss of the filtered channel and can be implemented easily in practice.
