The transmission spectra response simulated by transmission function method shows that the device has channel spacing of 1.6 nm and crosstalk of 31 dB. The device is fabricated by 193 nm deep UV lithography in silicon-on-substrate. The demultiplexing characteristics are observed with crosstalk of 5-8 dB, central channel＇s insertion loss of 2.2 dB, flee spectral range of 24.7 nm and average channel spacing of 1.475 nm. The cause of the spectral distortion is analyzed specifically.展开更多

Transfer function method is used in the spectrum simulation. The simulated results show that the central wavelength and channel spacing are 1 562.1 nm and 0.8 nm, respectively, which are in accord with the designed values, and the crosstalk is about-23 dB. The device is fabricated on silicon-on-insulator(SOI) substrate by deep ultraviolet lithography(DUV) and inductively coupled plasma(ICP) etching technologies. The 45-channel 100 GHz AWG exhibits insertion loss of 6.5 dB and crosstalk of-8 dB.展开更多
