A novel wavelength-selective photonic time-delay filter is proposed and demonstrated. The device consists of an optical phased-array waveguide grating in a recirculating feedback configuration. It can function as a true-time-delay generator for squint-free beam steering in optically controlled phased-array antennas and as an encoding-decoding filter for wavelength code-division multiple access.

We present an all-optical delay-line radio-frequency (RF) notch filter. The filter exploits cross-gain modulation in a homogeneously broadened laser medium to obtain a negative tap in an optically incoherent system. Applications including moving-target indication (MTI) in optically controlled radars are discussed.
