چکیده

We experimentally demonstrate a new type of waveguide multiplexer device designed for silicon photonics, with a crosstalk level as low as -35 dB and an operational wavelength range of 300 nm. A compact device footprint of only 100 × 160 µm2 offers an excellent potential for integration with other silicon nanophotonic circuits.

Design of Optical Demultiplexer using Arrayed Waveguide Grating

Optical demultiplexers are used to receive multiple frequency signal from an optical fiber and to split it into its different frequency components. Arrayed waveguide gratings can be used to design an optical demultiplexer and works on the principle of interferometry. This paper presents the design of optical demultiplexer for an optical signal composed of eight frequency components. Simulation ...

Photo-spectrometer based on the integration of InP/InGaAs photodetectors onto a Silicon-on- insulator etched diffraction grating

─We present the design and simulation results of an integrated wavelength demultiplexer. The device’s major components, which include the Silicon-on-insulator (SOI) etched diffraction grating and waveguide integrated InP/InGaAs MSM photodetectors are discussed in detail. The Silicon-on-insulator diffraction grating is fabricated using standard CMOS processes. The photodetectors are integrated o...

Nanowires and sidewall Bragg gratings in silicon as enabling technologies for microwave photonic filters.

We describe the use of various silicon photonic device technologies to implement microwave photonic filters (MPFs). We demonstrate four-wave mixing in a silicon nanowire waveguide (SNW) to increase the number of taps for MPFs based on finite impulse response filter designs. Using a 12 mm long SNW reduces the footprint by five orders of magnitude compared to silica highly nonlinear fiber while o...

Focusing-curved subwavelength grating couplers for ultra-broadband silicon photonics optical interfaces.

We report on the design and characterization of focusing-curved subwavelength grating couplers for ultra-broadband silicon photonics optical interfaces. With implementation of waveguide dispersion engineered subwavelength structures, an ultra-wide 1-dB bandwidth of over 100 nm (largest reported to date) near 1550 nm is experimentally achieved for transverse-electric polarized light. By tapering...
