| Abstract: | A waveguide array multiplexer design that is particularly suitable for making broadband low-order devices is presented. Two-channel multiplexers at 1.0-1.55 μm, 1.31-1.53 μm, and 1.47-1.55 μm are demonstrated. Compared to conventional waveguide multiplexers, these devices have wide spectral ranges of low crosstalk. The devices are polarization independent. The crosstalk and fiber-to-fiber insertion loss for the 1.31-1.53 μm multiplexer were about -35 and -2 dB, respectively |
