Abstract
An optical component is disclosed. The optical component includes a light distribution component having a light signal carrying region. The component also includes an index tuner configured to tune the index of refraction of the light signal carrying region so as to generate a functional region in the light signal carrying region. The functional region is generated such that the index of refraction of the light signal carrying region is different inside of the functional region and outside of the functional region. In some instances, the index tuner is configured to generate the functional region such that a dispersion profile of the light signal changes in response to traveling through the functional region.
