Design and demonstration of direct UV-written small angle X couplers in silica-on-silicon for broadband operation
Experimental demonstration of small angle (0.8 degrees-5 degrees) direct UV-written X couplers in silica-on-silicon is presented. Maximum and minimum coupling ratios of 95 (+/- 0.8) and 1.9 (+/- 1), respectively, were recorded. The structures also display very low polarization and wavelength depende...
