Design and fabrication of the PCWG are investigated. The spectral dependence of the group delay is measured by detecting the phase shifts of a 10 GHz modulating signal, and a maximum delay of 25±2.5 ps is obtained.展开更多

The width of the adjustment waveguide （W2） and the hole radii of the coupling region （r＇） will change the dispersion of incident waveguide mode. Theoretical investigation reveals that zero dispersion at various low group velocity vg in incident waveguide can be achieved. In particular, proper W2 and r＇ can lead to the lowest vg of 0.0085c at 1550 nm with wide bandwidth of 202 GHz for zero dispersion.展开更多
