20GHz Channel Spacing InP-based Arrayed Waveguide Grating
We demonstrate a 10-channel InP-based Arrayed-Waveguide Grating (dimensions = 5.0x6.0 mm) with a 20-GHz channel spacing. The excess loss of the AWG is 5.5-6.3 dB, and the crosstalk level is below -15 dB. Introduction Arrayed waveguide Gratings (AWGs) are one of the key components for wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) applications, and narrowchannel-spacing AWG multi/demultiplexers are indi...
متن کاملArrayed Waveguide Grating Router
This paper discusses design, fabrication, and characterization of a 512 × 512 arrayed waveguide grating router (AWGR) with a channel spacing of 25 GHz. The dimensions of the AWGR is 16 mm × 11 mm and is fabricated on a 250 nm silicon-on-insulator platform. The measured channel crosstalk is approximately −4 dB without any compensation for the phase errors in the arrayed waveguides. The AWGR spec...
متن کاملLow-loss Si3N4 arrayed-waveguide grating (de)multiplexer using nano-core optical waveguides.
A 16-channel 200 GHz arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) (de)-multiplexer is demonstrated experimentally by utilizing Si3N4 buried optical waveguides, which have 50 nm-thick Si3N4 cores and a 15 μm-thick SiO2 cladding. The structure with an ultra-thin core layer helps to reduce the scattering due to the sidewall roughness and consequently shows very low loss of about 0.4~0.8 dB/m. When using this t...
متن کاملDesign of an Arrayed Waveguide Grating for Photonic Integrated Circuits
Arrayed waveguide gratings are useful structures for the implementation of wavelength division multiplexing; however, in their current form, they are too large to be made cheaply or to use as an integrated component. This paper discusses the work of the MIT Microphotonics Center, explains the operation of an arrayed waveguide grating, and discusses plans for a Master of Engineering thesis proje...
متن کامل5 x 20 Gb/s heterogeneously integrated III-V on silicon electro-absorption modulator array with arrayed waveguide grating multiplexer.
We present a five-channel wavelength division multiplexed modulator module that heterogeneously integrates a 200 GHz channel-spacing silicon arrayed-waveguide grating multiplexer and a 20 Gbps electro-absorption modulator array, showing the potential for 100 Gbps transmission capacity on a 1.5x0.5 mm² footprint.
