    Area of Science:

    • Photonics and Optical Engineering
    • Integrated Optics
    • Silicon Photonics

    Background:

    • Mode division multiplexing (MDM) is crucial for increasing optical communication capacity.
    • Conventional MDM structures on silicon often face challenges with size and integration.
    • Developing compact and efficient MDM devices is essential for next-generation optical interconnects.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose and analyze a novel densely packed waveguide array (DPWA) for on-chip mode division multiplexing.
    • To demonstrate an efficient and parallel (de)multiplexing structure using the DPWA.
    • To evaluate the performance of the DPWA in terms of insertion loss, crosstalk, and bending capability.

    Main Methods:

    • Design of a DPWA comprising narrow waveguides with sub-wavelength gaps (100nm).
    • Simulation and analysis of a three-mode DPWA (de)multiplexing structure.
    • Characterization of optical performance, including insertion loss and crosstalk across a wide wavelength range.
    • Evaluation of performance in compact 90° bends and assessment of fabrication tolerance.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved insertion losses of -0.05dB and crosstalk of -20dB for all modes in a 15μm-long (de)multiplexing structure.
    • Demonstrated low insertion loss (-0.1dB) and crosstalk (-20dB) in a compact 45μm-radius 90° bend.
    • The DPWA exhibits a lateral dimension comparable to conventional multimode waveguides.
    • The proposed structure shows significant fabrication tolerance.

    Conclusions:

    • The DPWA is a promising structure for compact and efficient on-chip mode division multiplexing.
    • The design offers excellent optical performance and robustness, suitable for practical silicon photonic applications.
    • This technology facilitates denser integration and improved performance for optical communication systems.
