The structures of the AWGs we designed are composed of five main parts, including the input/output waveguides, two slab waveguides, and an array of waveguides, as shown in Fig. 1 (b).

We present the design, simulation, evaluation, and technological verification of various low-index optical demultiplexers based on arrayed waveguide gratings

These design of these devices are based on an array of and demultiplexers in a Wavelength Division Multiplexed (WDM) waveguides with both imaging and dispersive properties.

Arrayed waveguide gratings (AWG) are commonly used as optical (de)multiplexers in wavelength division multiplexed (WDM) systems. These devices are capable of multiplexing many wavelengths into a single optical fiber, thereby increasing the transmission capacity of optical networks considerably. The devices are based on a fundamental principle of optics, which states that light waves of different wavelengths do not interfere linearly with each other. This means that, if each channel in an optical communication

This Spotlight aims to provide an overview of the life cycle of optical MUX/DeMUX based on arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs), from the principle, design, and simulation through evaluation and

Figure 1: Structure of an arrayed waveguide grating. Particularly for AWGs with large numbers of channels, a high precision of the fabrication is required for achieving

However, due to the intrinsic anisotropy of the material, to build an arrayed waveguide grating on X-cut thin-film lithium niobate has never been

Our model simulates the transmission matrices (T-matrix) of all parts of the AWG using the most suitable method. In our approach we divided the AWG in three

We start with the eigenmode solver to calculate the modal properties of a single waveguide and a slab. This is followed by the varFDTD simulation to further
