The output structure of an etched diffraction grating is studied. By introducing a combination of tapers and air slots into the output structure, the spectral performance of the device is greatly improved with little loss penalty, while the compactness of the device is remained. The structure requires no additional fabrication process, and has a good fabrication tolerance. The beam propagation method and the guided-mode propagation analysis are used to demonstrate the advantages of the present design. In a numerical example, the -1dB passband width and the figure of merit of a designed demultiplexer are increased by 1.474 and 1.383 times, respectively, as compared to a demultiplexer with a conventional structure. Furthermore, the crosstalk is reduced by more than 15 dB and the loss penalty is only about 0.65 dB.
