A novel design of a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) filter for passive optical network applications is described. The SOI filter comprises a monolithically integrated planar reflective grating and a multistage Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The fabricated device showed low insertion losses and high optical isolation. To the best of our knowledge, this letter describes the first demonstration of an SOI circuit comprising monolithically integrated planar reflective grating and cascaded Mach-Zehnder interferometer
