Abstract
A new two-channel demultiplexer structure for closely spaced wavelength-division-multiplexing systems is proposed. The demultiplexer is constructed with an interference filter and achromatic quarter-wave plates. Its feature is that wavelength-multiplexed light falls normally upon the filter. Two demultiplexers coupled with single-mode fibers are fabricated. Their measured insertion losses are 1.8 and 2.8 dB.
