Abstract

Continuously variable and independently addressable channelized dispersion is produced by an array of MEMS adaptable curvature mirrors employed in a novel optical configuration. A per channel variable dispersion greater than +/-400ps/nm was demonstrated, with 56 GHz +/-0.4 dB flat passband on 85 GHz spacing.
