Broadband terahertz fiber directional coupler.
We present the design of a short broadband fiber directional coupler for terahertz (THz) radiation and demonstrate a 3 dB coupler with a bandwidth of 0.6 THz centered at 1.4 THz. The broadband coupling is achieved by mechanically downdoping the cores of a dual-core photonic crystal fiber by microstructuring the cores. This is equivalent to chemical downdoping but is easier to realize experiment...
متن کاملUltra-broadband High Coupling Efficiency Fiber-to-Waveguide Coupler Using Si3N4/SiO2 Waveguides On Silicon
An easy-to-fabricate but very efficient fiber-to-waveguide coupler is theoretically analyzed and experimentally demonstrated. In this design, light from a single-mode fiber can be butt-coupled into a single-mode high-index-contrast Si3N4/SiO2 waveguide with a measured coupling efficiency of 96 % at the wavelength of 1550 nm, and > 90 % in the spectral range from 1450 nm to 1650 nm. Large horizo...
متن کاملHigh efficiency diffractive grating coupler based on transferred silicon nanomembrane overlay on photonic waveguide
We report here the design of a new type of high efficiency grating coupler, based on single crystalline Si nanomembrane overlay and stacking. Such high efficiency diffractive grating couplers are designed for the purpose of coupling light between single mode fibres and nanophotonic waveguides, and for the coupling between multiple photonic interconnect layers for compact three-dimensional verti...
متن کاملTerahertz-bandwidth photonic temporal differentiator based on a silicon-on-isolator directional coupler.
We experimentally demonstrate a terahertz-bandwidth photonic differentiator employing a silicon-on-insulator directional coupler. The integrated waveguide coupler with two identical paralleled strip waveguides achieves a first-order differentiator when full energy coupling is met from one waveguide to another. The integrated waveguide coupler can offer different operation bandwidths by changing...
متن کاملA Split-Block Waveguide Directional Coupler
A simple waveguide directional coupler is described which uses the split-block type of construction common in millimeter-wave components. The coupler uses an array of metal probes suspended on quartz stand-offs. Depending on the number of coupling elements, the coupling can be in the range 15-30 dB, with typically ± 2 dB variation across the waveguide band, and directivity > 10 dB. The coupler,...
