Ultra Compact 1×11 Power Splitter Using Polydiacetylene Multimode Interference Coupler

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to propose an ultra compact 1×11 power splitter using a Polydiacetylene multimode interference coupler to improve its performance and decrease the dimension based on a contribution of Kerr nonlinear effect on modes propagation and interference. The power splitting is done with 11 outputs and small dimension. In fact, this is the first time that a power splitter is demonstrated at the length of less than 100µm with a large number of outputs. The device efficiency is studied in terms of insertion loss and uniformity. The simulation result shows extremely low uniformity and insertion loss due to the great small length.
