FABRICATION OF A 17×17 POLYMER ARRAYED WAVEGUIDE GRATING WITH FLAT SPECTRAL RESPONSE

摘要

A 17×17 polymer arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) multiplexer with flat spectral response have been designed and fabricated by using FPE polymer materials. The measured results are as: the center wavelength is 1550.83 nm, wavelength channel spacing is 0.8 nm, 3-dB bandwidth is about 0.476 nm, insertion loss is 13×15 dB, and crosstalk is about -21 dB.
