Arbitrary access to optical carriers in silicon photonic mode/wavelength hybrid division multiplexing circuits

Abstract: The manipulation of optical modes directly in a multimode waveguide without affecting the transmission of undesired signal carriers is of significance to realize a flexible and simple structured optical network-on-chip. In this Letter, an arbitrary optical mode and wavelength carrier access scheme is proposed based on a series of multimode microring resonators and one multimode bus waveguide with constant width. As a proof-of-concept, a three-mode (de)multiplexing device is designed, fabricated, and experiment… Show more

“…The wavelength tuning efficiency is measured to be ≈0.141 nm∕mW, and the whole FSR can be covered completely within the wavelength tuning range. Compared with the designs that can selectively access mode-/wavelength-carriers reported previously, 26,27 the present ROADM utilizing the modal field redistribution scheme possesses advantages of low insertion losses and low intermode cross talks, while no additional mode conversion devices are needed.…”

“…In 2021, an MDM switch was demonstrated so that any mode-/wavelength-channels can be directly accessed, but additional mode conversion devices were required to convert each mode into the highest-order mode supported by the MBW, which therefore increased the complexity 26 . In 2022, a three-mode (de)multiplexing device was demonstrated by introducing multimode MRRs, in which case the fundamental mode in the bus waveguide was evanescently coupled to the TE1 mode in the Euler-based MRR 27 . Nevertheless, it suffered from excess loss (EL) and cross talk, hindering its practical applications.…”
