Abstract
The effective reflectivity of planar tunable filter fiber Fabry-Perot (TF-FFP) caused by coupling losses would led to the change of tuning range and the full width half maximum (FWHM) in the process of gap distance tuning. The general transfer function expression of FFP is developed by Gaussian beams model and coupling losses. A method that is by appropriate unsymmetrical reflectivity of fiber end can increase the tuning range and reduce the FWHM is proposed, the obtained parameters may be useful for the analysis and design of other TF-FFP. At last the initial gap position and reflectivities of both ends of TF-FFP are designed theoretically for C-band and C+L-band respectively.
