On-chip reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer for hybrid wavelength/mode-division-multiplexing systems
Optics Letters
|July 15, 2017
Abstract:
A silicon-based on-chip reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) is presented for hybrid wavelength-division-multiplexing-mode-division-multiplexing systems. The present ROADM consists of a four-channel mode demultiplexer, four wavelength-selective thermo-optic switches based on microring resonators, and a four-channel mode multiplexer. With the present ROADM, one can add/drop one of wavelength channels of any mode to/from the multimode bus waveguide successfully with an excess loss of 2-5 dB and an extinction ratio of ∼20 dB over a wavelength range of 1525-1555 nm.
