Titel
An ultracompact multimode interference wavelength splitter employing asymmetrical multi-section structures
Abstract
By using the film mode matching method, a novel design for asymmetrical multi-section 1.55/1.31 mu m wavelength splitter based on multimode interference has been proposed and simulated, which can be effectively applied to wavelength multiplexer, self-biased photodiode, and other optical devices. Compared with the conventional wavelength splitter design, the length of the novel structure has been reduced to at least 1/5, showing better performance. The presented structure is also adequate for splitting other wavelengths and more tolerable fabrications.
